Watering soil-grown lucky bamboo should be determined according to the season. If it is in spring and autumn, the peak growth season, and the water demand is large, you should water frequently. If you find that the soil surface is dry, replenish water. In summer, the temperature is high and water is lost quickly, so the frequency and amount need to be increased. And also sprinkle water to increase the humidity. When the temperature is too low in winter, its growth rate is slow and it consumes less water. It is necessary to control the water. If it is not dry, there is no need to water it to avoid frostbite.

1. How to water

It likes a humid environment. During the growth period, the soil must be moist and a certain humidity must be maintained. The specific watering frequency depends on the environment. Different environments have different growth conditions, and the required water is naturally different.

If it is in spring and autumn, it is the peak growing season. It needs a lot of water, so water it frequently. Water when you find that the soil surface is dry. Water thoroughly every time, but do not allow water to accumulate. In summer, the temperature is relatively high and moisture is lost quickly, so you need to increase the number of times. In addition to watering, you must also sprinkle water frequently, otherwise the air will be too dry, which will also hinder growth. When the temperature is low in winter, its growth rate slows down and its water demand will also decrease. Water must be controlled to avoid freezing of the soil and causing frost damage.

2. Watering precautions

In addition to paying attention to the frequency of watering, you should also pay attention to the time and water temperature of watering. Especially the summer and winter seasons. In high temperature environments in summer, watering should be avoided at noon, otherwise it will irritate the plants and affect absorption. Watering should be done at night or in the morning. In winter, on the contrary, you should water at noon and ensure that the water temperature and soil temperature are close to each other.

3. How to apply fertilizer

For soil-raised plants, an appropriate amount of base fertilizer should be applied when potting them. Only when the soil is fertile will they grow better later. During the peak growth season, a lot of nutrients are needed and should be supplemented with top dressing in time. Compound fertilizer can be applied every 20-25 days. It is best to apply it after dilution, so that the concentration is low and easy to absorb, which can avoid fertilizer damage.
