We can judge whether there is water shortage by observing the state of leaves. Generally speaking, there are two ways. One is to look at the color. If the color is dark, it means lack of water. The other is to touch it by hand, which is very hard, that is, lack of water.

3. Other methods to judge whether there is water shortage.

If not through the leaves, it can also be judged by the weight of the flowerpot or the sound of knocking on the flowerpot. Sometimes the weight difference is relatively small, if it is not easy to judge, you can use sound. If the sound is clear and crisp, then there is water shortage. At this time, you can water it. If the sound is more dull, then the water in the basin is more sufficient, at this time, no need to water.
