Once dry

There are no water stains and no clay on the stick, which means that the basin soil is dry and can water the orchid. Water should be watered thoroughly until water leaks from the bottom of the basin.

Two damp

"two dampness" means that the second watering should be watered when the basin soil is relatively wet, and it is generally more appropriate to water the next evening of the first water. Friends who do not have a good grasp of the dry humidity of the basin soil can insert the flower and plant detector into the basin soil. the data show that the water content of the basin soil is about 70% and 80%, and it can be watered for the second time.
