How often should a Clivia be watered, and what kind of water is best

The watering interval for Clivia differs depending on the season. In spring, it can be watered once a day; in summer, when the weather is good, it can be watered twice a day; after it turns cool in autumn, water once every two days; from late autumn through winter, water once a week or less. For the water, magnetized water is best, or snow water, rainwater, or water from rivers.

I. How often to water

The interval differs by season. In spring, which is exactly its growing period, it can be watered once a day. In summer the temperature becomes very high and evaporation is relatively fast; when the weather is good, it can be watered twice a day, and you can also use a small spray bottle to sprinkle water around it. After it turns cool in autumn, water once every two days; from late autumn through winter, water once a week or less.

Its roots can store a large amount of water, so it is relatively drought-tolerant and does not need much water poured in, but the plant must not be left in a water-deficient state all the time. Water should be applied moderately to ensure its normal growth; applying too much water easily leads to root rot, so it can be watered in several portions, and no single watering should be too much.

II. What kind of water is best for watering

The water poured in also needs to be chosen with care; magnetized water is best. If conditions do not allow it, you can use snow water, rainwater, or water from rivers. But note that you must not use water taken directly from a hose or tap, because it contains disinfecting chlorine; if you want to use it, it is best to draw the water out and let it sit for 2-3 days, and once the chlorine inside has fully evaporated, use it to water.
