So next, Shuashuai will tell everyone how to water Arundina graminifolia!
1. Watering Principles
We cannot water Arundina graminifolia blindly. Before watering, we can first observe whether the soil is short of water. If it is short of water, the soil will turn white. We can dig 1 cm into the soil with a finger. If it is still white, it means it needs watering. Follow the principle of watering when dry and stopping when wet. Do not water it until it is very wet; appropriately slightly dry is fine. But each time you water, you must water thoroughly. You cannot just water halfway and then stop, because this easily makes the soil harden into clods, seriously affecting the normal growth of the soil. Before watering, you can put the water in the sun for a while, or let it sit for a few days before use.
2. Watering in Spring and Autumn
⟦NL>The growing season of Arundina graminifolia is these two seasons, so it needs a large amount of water to support it. Water about once every 2-3 days. The specific time is best chosen at 10 a.m. or 4 p.m. Keep the humidity of the potting soil at about 80%.3. Watering in Summer
The temperature in this season is relatively high. The high temperature in summer makes the evaporation speed and evaporation amount of water the greatest, so in such hot conditions, the plant absolutely must not be allowed to suffer from lack of water. Keep humidity at 80%, water once every 1-2 days, and choose the morning or evening for watering. Do not water the plant under strong light; this is the least advisable.
4. Watering in Winter
Winter is relatively dry. When the potting soil is a little dry, spray a little water mist on the potting soil and around it to keep it moist. Do not water too much. It is best to let tap water sit for a while first, wait for the chemical substances in it to volatilize, and then use it for irrigation. This is better, and it also has the effect of minimizing the temperature difference between the water temperature and the indoor temperature.
5. Precautions
No matter when you water, it is best to let the water sit for a while before watering. This is very important, because today's tap water is all processed and contains some chemical substances. The substances used for water purification have not been completely removed, so they need to volatilize. If the drainage of the pot is very good, we can appropriately increase the amount and frequency of watering.
The above are the methods for watering Arundina graminifolia. In a year, aside from needing to control the number of waterings in winter and paying attention to that, when it is in the growing season in summer and autumn, the amount and frequency of watering should be appropriately increased. If the weather is very hot and the temperature is very high, then observe the degree of soil cracking more often and replenish water accordingly.
