How often do gardenia flowers are watered

1. Habits

This kind of flower prefers water. If it grows under the condition of lack of water for a long time, it will grow more slowly, the leaves will curl and the quality of the flowers will decline.

In addition, it also requires the humidity of the surrounding air, if it is less than 70%, it can directly affect its flowering, and if it is too high, it will cause its flowers to rot.

2. Principles

Based on its growth habits, we need to follow some principles when replenishing water for it.

First of all, the water should be replenished in a timely manner, and we should not wait until the flower soil is completely dried up before thinking of rehydrating it. Because there is no water in the completely dried soil for it to absorb, it will be short of water, making some normal physiological reactions difficult to carry out.

Second, rehydration can not be too frequent, although we can hear that this kind of flower will not die, but this is not true. Because if you add too much water, it will inevitably produce stagnant water in the flower soil, which may lead to its root rot and malaise.

Finally, we need to be careful not to let the air around it be too dry. Generally speaking, we don't get 70% humidity in our house, but in order to increase this number, we can use a spray can and spray some water mist around it. This can ensure that it will not dry up the flowers and branches because the outside world is too dry.

3. How often is it poured?

In fact, this needs to change according to the time.

① Spring: just replenish it every day or two in the morning, but don't forget to spray it at night. Be careful not to spray on the flowers, or they will rot. Remember to ventilate it after replenishing the water.

② summer: replenish water every day, because it is too hot, the moisture is steamed off very quickly, if you do not increase the frequency of rehydration, it is likely to cause the flower soil to dry completely.

③ autumn: replenish water once every one to three days. At this time, the water consumption is not very big, and you don't need to replenish too much.

④ winter: replenish water every three weeks to once a month, at this time its demand for water is very low, must not be replenished too frequently.

The above is just a general situation, we also need to pay attention to the specific conditions of the flower soil before we replenish it, if it is still wet, we can not add water first, if it begins to dry, we can add water.
