How to water the succulent Thor

How much water to pour

Thor is a drought-resistant succulent with fleshy leaves. During droughts, they have to consume the water stored in the leaves to maintain normal physiological functions. Once it rains, they will immediately drink enough water and store it in their bodies for future use, thus forming a plump and juicy appearance. So for the fat and strong Thor, watering it takes a lot of effort.

As for the amount of watering, use one cup of water for a small pot, two cups of water for a large pot, and the amount of water used for drinking water should be the size of a paper cup.

Water thoroughly

If you water the pot thoroughly, water will flow out from the bottom and you will be able to see it visually. Because this ensures that the roots at the bottom can also absorb water. From another perspective, you can intuitively see the air permeability of the soil and whether the holes at the bottom of the pot are blocked. And watering thoroughly is the best way to keep it fresh.

Precautions

It is not recommended to use pots without holes for planting, because you don’t know how much water is needed to reach the bottom roots without causing water accumulation at the bottom of the pot, which has the disadvantage of being unobservable and unpredictable. A bold person may end up with waterlogging and root rot, while a timid person may not be able to water the roots enough even after pouring a few drops.
