However, many friends are confused about when to water Clivia Miniata and what a lack of water looks like.

When the pot becomes very light, it means that it is short of water and needs to be watered thoroughly. Of course, this requires us to observe it frequently, the moisture level of the pot, and the weight of the pot under different drying conditions. This method requires us to estimate the watering by ourselves, and it takes a long time to fully understand this trick, which is not suitable for beginners.Second, tap the potWe usually grow Clivia Miniata in a terracotta pot with good breathability. After watering, tapping the pot makes a dull sound, indicating that the water has been thoroughly absorbed. If the pot is short of water and tapped, the sound inside is relatively crisp, which means we need to water it.

This method is intuitive and simple, suitable for both beginners and experienced gardeners. Mastering this method, even after ten years of caring for Clivia Miniata, the plant will not rot due to excessive watering. However, when inserting the skewer, be sure to do it at the edge of the pot and not in the middle, to avoid injuring the roots.Watering Clivia Miniata is particularly crucial. If not mastered properly, excessive watering can easily cause the soil to accumulate water and lead to root rot. Mastering these methods is the key to watering Clivia Miniata. Water Clivia Miniata only when the potting soil is almost dry and then water thoroughly, because most of Clivia Miniata's new roots are at the bottom of the pot. When the potting soil is almost dry, the roots at the bottom can still maintain a slightly moist state. If the watering is not thorough, the new roots at the bottom often lack water and can easily cause the roots to shrink and eventually rot.The above content about how to care for and water Clivia Miniata and the minimum cold-resistant temperature of Clivia Miniata can be used as a reference for green plant enthusiasts.
