How to water lilies

The principle of watering lilies is that it is better to let the soil be dry than to water too much. If the soil is slightly dry, just water it. Avoid accumulation of water or waterlogging, as accumulation of water can easily lead to root rot.

1. When watering lilies, you need to look at the dryness of the soil. Water them immediately if the soil is dry. Water them about once every three days.

2. When you just buy the lily or just change the pot, don't water it immediately. Let it go through the seedling acclimatization period, then add water. Water it at the edge of the pot and let the water slowly seep into the soil.

3. Do not water lilies too much when watering them daily. Keep the soil slightly dry. Do not keep it moist for a long time, which is not conducive to its growth.
