Ivy likes a warm and humid environment. When watering, it should be watered according to the environment temperature and growth conditions.
In the growing season of ivy, we should always water it and adhere to the principle of "wet when dry". Watering must be done thoroughly, but do not accumulate water in the basin soil, otherwise it will lead to rotten Ivy roots and leaves. In addition, when the weather is dry, clean the leaves with clear water to ensure that the leaves are bright and clean, and increase the air humidity. In winter, the growth and metabolism of ivy is slow. Proper control of watering can ensure that the basin soil is slightly wet.
Ivy flower pots usually choose plastic pots and clay pots. In the same soil, they get different water evaporation. The evaporation of water in the plastic basin is slow, so the watering interval of ivy planted in the plastic basin is longer. In general, Ivy can be watered once every 4-6 days in plastic pots and once every 2-4 days in clay pots.
The growth of ivy is the best indicator of whether the water is sufficient. 1-2 days after watering, observe the growth of the plant. If the leaves are green and normal, do not water temporarily. If yellow leaves appear in wilted plants, it may be that there is too much water, so it is necessary to take off the basin in time. Secondly, according to the situation of basin soil, chopsticks can be inserted into the soil to check whether the bottom of basin soil is short of water. If there is more wet soil on the chopsticks, the plants will not lack water. On the contrary, they should be supplemented with water in time.
