How often should I water the scented vine?

In spring and autumn, the peak growing season, water should be applied every three to five days, and each time the plant should be watered thoroughly, but not too much water or water accumulation. In summer, water evaporates quickly in a high temperature environment, so the plant should be watered every day, once in the morning and once in the evening. In winter, the temperature is low and the growth rate is slower, so water should be controlled appropriately, and the plant should not be watered until it is dry. It is best to use mineral-rich river or lake water when watering the fragrant vine.

Watering method of pineapple vine

1. Observe the soil in the pot : If you find that the soil in the pot becomes lighter or turns grayish white, it means that the soil has become dry and you can water it. If the soil is still brown or grayish brown, you do not need to water it for the time being.

2. Dryness and humidity measurement tool : You can buy a soil moisture meter and insert it into the soil. You can see the words "dry" or "wet" on the scale.

Precautions for watering the fragrant vine

1. Water quality : When watering the plants, we should try to choose slightly more natural water, such as rainwater or river water for watering. In addition, when watering, the water temperature and soil temperature should not be too different to avoid freezing in winter.

2. Reduce the amount of watering in winter : If it is the rainy season and the air humidity is high, you can reduce the amount of water. In winter, the water demand becomes smaller, so the potting soil should be kept as dry as possible, and water less or even not at all.

What to do if you overwater the scented vine

1. Turn over the soil in the pot. When we find that excessive watering has caused water accumulation in the pot, we must turn over the soil in the pot in time, remove the soil from the plant, spread the removed soil out to dry, drain the water, and put a layer of dry soil at the bottom of the pot. Dry the old soil and keep it for use when planting back in the pot.
2. Prune the roots. After removing the plants from the soil, we need to start pruning the plants. Stagnant water will cause the roots of the plants to rot, so we need to carefully comb the roots, find the rotten roots and cut them off with sharp scissors in time, let the incisions dry slightly and then disinfect them.
