How to water the green vines
This article summarizes the knowledge related to how to water green vines and the correct methods of green vine maintenance. Next, the editor will introduce them.
Green vines are actually very easy to care for as potted plants, but many gardening enthusiasts still manage to kill them. The main reason for killing green vines is improper watering. Many inexperienced newcomers make this mistake by looking at others' well-maintained green vines online and following their maintenance methods. In the end, the green vines still turn yellow and rot, why is that? It is because they only saw the surface and not the essence. Let me give a few examples to illustrate this!
Gardening enthusiast A: I water them less frequently but often, once every other day, and often spray water, very vigorous, not a single yellow leaf.
If you also water every other day and often spray water, then your green vines won't be without yellow leaves, but with a large area of yellow leaves. Why do I say that? If green vines grow vigorously and have no yellow leaves under these conditions, it means that the soil of this enthusiast has good permeability, and the placement environment is also well-ventilated. If you also have such soil and environment, you can try this method.
How to determine if green vines need watering:
① Insert a disposable chopstick into the soil, wait for a few minutes, and if the chopstick is not damp and does not bring out any soil, it means it's time to water. If there is a watermark on the chopstick, it means it's not necessary to water yet. (Suitable for beginners!)
② First, check if the surface soil of the pot is dry or wet. If the surface soil is dry, dig a little to see how thick the dry soil layer is; if it's just a thin layer, there's no need to water. If the dry soil layer has reached 1/4 to 1/3 of the potting soil, it indicates that the potting soil is starting to lack water or is already short of water, and water should be supplemented immediately.
③ To determine if the green vines in the pot are short of water, you can also look at the leaves. As long as you feel that the leaves of the green vines are not very lively, it's almost certain that they are short of water. (But this requires some experience to see)
Green vine watering precautions:
① Do not always water green vines or not water for several days, then water when they are very dry. This will also cause yellow leaves.
② The pot for green vines requires the soil to have good permeability, so that the water can渗透 easily. If the permeability is poor, it's easy to water unevenly, with some places getting watered and some not, creating an illusion that enough water has been given.
③ Do not water when the temperature is very high, usually choose evening or morning.
The above comprehensive explanation of how to water green vines and the correct methods of green vine maintenance may help you.
