Talking about lucky bamboo, I have a lot to say to everyone. This plant is very auspicious when placed at home. Moreover, the leaves of the lucky bamboo are large and lush, similar to my personality—carefree and easygoing. So, what should we pay attention to when watering lucky bamboo during its maintenance?
1. The timing of watering: In spring and autumn, we can water at any time during the day. In summer, we need to be careful, as the temperature at noon is the highest and the water temperature is also high, so we should water in the morning or at dusk when the sun sets. In winter, we can only water at noon because the water is too cold at other times, which the lucky bamboo cannot tolerate.
2. The amount of watering: There is no fixed amount when watering lucky bamboo. As long as you can see water coming out of the pot when watering, it indicates that the plant has been watered thoroughly. At this time, you can raise the flowerpot a bit to allow for ventilation and dry the water, preventing积水. Also, during hot weather, you can spray water on the leaves to keep them moist.
3. The interval of watering: This depends on the season and specific conditions. In normal seasons like spring and autumn, we water every 3-5 days, which is also the growing season for lucky bamboo. We can't neglect this. In summer, we can water once a day, and also spray water at noon. In winter, we should not water frequently, usually once a month. After watering, do not place the plant in a dark and cold place, but rather in a warm environment to prevent freezing.

In addition to watering, the maintenance of lucky bamboo also requires attention to lighting and fertilization. Sufficient lighting is beneficial for the growth of the plant's leaves and allows for adequate photosynthesis, resulting in the release of more chlorophyll and a more vibrant color. However, in summer, we need to provide some shade, as too much sunlight can be overwhelming for the lucky bamboo.
Fertilization is similar. During the growing season, we can fertilize once a month. In summer and winter, fertilization is generally not necessary. When choosing fertilizer, we can use nitrogen-based ones and dilute the fertilizer when applying, as concentrated fertilizer can damage the roots. If the fertilizer is too concentrated, we need to remove the plant from the pot and wash it with water before repotting.
Maintaining plants is more of a寄托 (a寄托 is a feeling of reliance or aspiration) or expectation from our hearts. Especially for friends who are struggling alone in a different city, they often pour out their daily frustrations to their small potted plants when they return home at night. Taking good care of them is also our hope for a better future.
