How often should I water my juniper?

Juniper is highly adaptable to the environment and is drought and water-resistant. You can water it a little more in the spring because it is in its growing period. It only needs to be watered once every five days.

In summer, water the plants in time according to weather changes. If the sun is shining and the temperature is high, water them every day. If it is cloudy and rainy, you don't need to water them. You can use natural rainwater or river water for watering.

Juniper watering method

1. Observe the soil: If the soil tends to be dry, you can add some water to maintain soil moisture.

2. Growth period: If it is a young juniper, the frequency of watering can be increased; if it is a mature juniper, the frequency of watering can be reduced.

Juniper watering precautions

1. Do not flood: Flooding caused by excessive watering will cause water accumulation in the soil and make it difficult for the juniper roots to breathe.

2. Apply water and fertilizer at the same time: You can water the plants while fertilizing to neutralize the fertilizer concentration and prevent the plants from losing water and burning their roots.

What to do if you overwater your juniper

1. Enhance light : utilize the photosynthetic respiration of juniper to improve water metabolism efficiency.

2. Increase the temperature : Use heat to evaporate water from the soil.
