The method of watering Fugui bamboo depends on its planting method, and the following are the watering guidelines of Fugui bamboo under two different methods: soil culture and hydroponics:
Watering method of soil cultivation rich bamboo:
1.Soil moisture management: Fugui bamboo prefers a moist but not waterlogged soil environment in the soil cultivation state. In spring and autumn, watering can be carried out according to soil moisture, generally when the soil surface is dry but the inner layer is still humid, you can use your fingers to insert your fingers into the soil to feel the humidity, if you feel dry, you should water in time.
2.Seasonal adjustment: In spring and autumn, water thoroughly 1-2 times a week to keep the soil moist and not too humid. In the hot summer, in addition to the regular watering, you can increase the spray around the plant to increase the air humidity, but in the winter when the temperature is low, you need to reduce the frequency of watering to avoid the soil from being too wet and causing root rot, usually every 20 days or so.
Hydroponic Fugui Bamboo Watering Method:
1.Pre-rooting stage: For Fugui bamboo that has just started hydroponics, change the clean water every 3-4 days to keep the water clear and conducive to the rapid growth of the root system.
2.Post-rooting stage: Once the root system has successfully grown, the frequency of water change can be adjusted to once a week. When the temperature is low in winter, the growth slows down, and the water change cycle can be extended to about once every 10 days, but it is still necessary to pay attention to the water quality, and replace the clean water immediately when turbid or impurities are found.
3.Special tips in winter: At any time, it is necessary to avoid cold damage caused by low water temperature, and it is more appropriate to use water close to room temperature when changing water.
When maintaining Fugui bamboo, the key to watering is to maintain the proper moisture balance and flexibly adjust the frequency and amount of watering according to the season and growth conditions. At the same time, whether it is soil culture or hydroponics, attention should be paid to avoid the lack of oxygen in the roots caused by overwatering or frost damage in the cold season.
