For the daily maintenance of sunflower, we can judge when it is suitable for watering according to the water permeability of flowerpot. If your flowerpot has good water permeability and is cultured under the direct sunlight outside, you can water it every day. If the water permeability is not very good and the sun is less, you can water it every two days. In a word, you can see the situation of the pot soil and the rigidity of the flower to grasp it. The flower will be soft when it is short of water, and it is very stiff when it is full of water.

I. watering time

It's best for watering at night, because there will be natural dew in the morning. In the middle of the day, the sun is strong, and watering can easily cause the plants to wither.

II. Watering method

It is suggested to use the soaking basin method to water the sunflower in the growing period: put the flowerpot into the basin filled with water as a whole, make the water not exceed 2 /3 of the flowerpot, and soak it in the basin for 15-20 minutes, so that the basin soil is wetted more thoroughly.

III. water volume

At seedling stage, the basin soil should be kept moist and supplied with sufficient water. In summer, if the temperature is above 25 ℃, it is necessary to increase the amount of watering and the times of watering. Water in time during the growth period to prevent the leaves from wilting due to dehydration. But do not water too much at one time, too wet pot soil will make leaves yellow. The amount of water should be controlled before and during flowering.
