How often should I water the wind bell flower?

When growing bellflowers in spring and autumn, you can water them 2-3 times a week. In summer, the temperature is higher and water evaporates faster, so you need to water them once a day to prevent the bellflowers from drying up. In winter, the temperature is lower, so you need to postpone watering to keep the soil dry. When watering, you can choose to use fermented rice water, soybean water and collected rainwater.

How to water Campanula

1. Press the potting soil : You can press the hardness of the soil with your hands. If it is particularly hard, generally speaking, the campanula is probably in a very dry condition.

2. Observe the leaves : If the leaves slowly turn yellow and the color gradually becomes lighter, in most cases it is due to lack of water. If the lack of water is severe, the plant roots will not absorb enough water.

Notes on watering bellflowers

1. Clean water : When watering the bellflower, the water quality must be clean. Do not use tap water directly for irrigation. It can be used for irrigation after leaving it for 2 to 3 days. In the summer when the temperature is high, watering should be done in the early morning or evening. In the winter when it is cold, watering should be done after the temperature rises at noon.

2. Reduce watering in winter : In winter, the campanula enters a dormant period. At this time, the growth rate of the plant is slower and the demand for water is also reduced. Therefore, you should reduce watering of the plant in winter and keep the soil dry.

What to do if you overwater the bellflower

The frequency and amount of watering need to be reduced. The way to judge is to see whether water flows out of the drainage hole of the flower pot and whether there is water accumulation in the flower pot. If there is too much water, drain it first, and then replace the soil as soon as possible when the temperature is suitable, usually in April.
