How often should a cactus be watered in the summer
Today's experience sharing: How often should a cactus be watered in the summer and sharing knowledge about watering cacti and other plants. Next, our site editor will introduce to everyone.
We all know that whether it's a cactus or a cacti, its drought resistance is very strong. Even in the dry desert, it is difficult for cacti and cacti to die. However, there are different methods for watering cacti throughout the year. For example, the temperature in summer and winter is different, and the watering methods are also different. Below is the sharing of the watering methods for cacti. Proper watering can ensure that the cacti grow more vigorously and have a longer growth period.
First: Watering in spring and autumn. For instance, during the cool seasons of spring and autumn, we can water the cactus once a week. However, in the summer, the temperature is relatively high, so we need to water it three times a week. Since spring and autumn are the peak growth seasons for cacti plants, we only need to keep the soil moist during this period, usually watering once a week.
Second: Watering in summer. In the summer, with high temperatures and strong sunlight, moisture evaporates quickly. Therefore, to prevent the cactus plant from drying out, we can water it three times a week and increase the amount of water during this period.
Third: In winter, the temperature is relatively low, and the cactus enters a dormant state. The growth rate of the cactus plant naturally slows down, and its water requirement significantly decreases. We only need to maintain the soil in a slightly dry state, and watering once every two weeks is fine.
Fourth: When watering a cactus, we must first ensure that the water is clean. If using tap water, it must be left for three days before it can be used for watering. Also, in the summer, we choose to water in the early morning or evening because the temperature is relatively low at these times. In the winter, we choose to water at noon because the temperature is higher then.
The above is a comprehensive introduction to how often a cactus should be watered in the summer and sharing the watering methods for cacti. I hope it brings some relevant knowledge about green plants to green plant enthusiasts.
