How to water flowers when the latest person is not at home

Recently, the Spring Festival holiday is approaching, but many flower friends are worried that they are going back to their hometown for the Spring Festival, but they are worried that the plants at home have dried to death because no one has watered them for so long. In fact, it is not just the Spring Festival. Sometimes I want to travel or take a long trip. I always worry about these plants at home. I wish there was a way to replenish water to the plants automatically. Don't worry, the pro-agricultural network will introduce to you several "unmanned methods of watering flowers".

1. Bag covering method

When we are about to leave, water the plant thoroughly, and then cover the whole plant with a plastic bag. Be careful not to cover the plant tightly and give the plant some room to breathe, otherwise it may cause disease because it is too stuffy. The principle of this method is to collect the evaporated water of the plant for secondary use. The evaporated water forms water droplets on the plastic bag, and the water droplets return to the soil for plant use.

2. Sand burying method

This method is usually suitable for small plants, which is too big to control. The plants are directly removed from the basin and buried in the wet sand basin with the soil. in order to ensure the wetness of the sand, we can also bury the mineral water bottles filled with water into several small holes in the soil.

Third, the basin-setting method

This method is the same as the one above, which is more suitable for small potted plants. The method is to prepare a large basin, put the potted plant directly into the big pot, then water the potted plant thoroughly, and then put water into the big pot, the height of the water in the big basin should not exceed half of the potted soil, so that according to the principle of the connector, the bottom of the pot will remain moist, and the upper soil will not be too moist.

IV. Drainage method

This is the easiest way to choose a towel with good water absorption, put a basin of water on the edge of the flowerpot, put one end of the towel in the water and bury the other in the soil of the flowerpot, so that you can loosen the water to the flowerpot through the towel. Isn't it easy?

5. Drip irrigation

This method is also relatively easy to operate. A bottle of water is hung from the top of the flowerpot, and a small hole is drilled at the mouth of the bottle to replenish the soil of the flowerpot in the form of water droplets, but the difficulty of this method is that it is difficult to control the speed of the water flow. when the hole is big, the water may not be dripped out before the hole is small, and then an enhanced version of drip irrigation method is come up with, that is, the water is directly inserted into the soil, and the hole is not too big. Replenish water to the soil by infiltration.

The above is the "unmanned flower watering method" collected by the pro-agricultural network for everyone. Here, the pro-agricultural network also adds that, in fact, most plants are dormant in winter, and the demand for water is not very great. When we use the above methods to water, we must pay attention to a degree, especially for some plants that are more tolerant to drought and waterlogging, we only need to water them thoroughly at once. After all, it is better to let the plant dry for two days than to drown.
