Can the soil retain enough water and yet still be airy? Or is your plant in clay soil which makes watering almost impossible? Or is it sandy soil, where the water runs through it? The soil should absorb the water well, and have a good buffer for food. In addition, an excellent drainage is important to avoid stagnant water and preventing root rot. Well aired potting soil for your indoor plant is of great importance. Many houseplants are in the same soil for too long (sometimes several years) that is often completely leached.<\/p>\n<\/div>\r\n                                            <\/div>\r\n                <\/li>\r\n                            <li class=\"accordion-row\">\r\n                    <a class=\"toggle\" href=#>\r\n                                                                            <h4 class=\"accordion-title\">Where is the plant?

The answer to the question of when water has to be given to potted plants, inside or outside, is generally simple. It is generally advised to water in the morning, and that indeed the right time, because it\u2019s cool early in the day. This applies to both potting soil and for water. If you water patio plants with cold tap water in the late afternoon in summer, the thermal shock will be the greatest and many plants don\u2019t like that. Citrus trees, for example, will get yellow leaves within a few days.<\/p>\n<\/div>\r\n                                            <\/div>\r\n                <\/li>\r\n                            <li class=\"accordion-row\">\r\n                    <a class=\"toggle\" href=#>\r\n                                                                            <h4 class=\"accordion-title\">What kind of water do I give to my houseplant or potted plant?<\/h4>\r\n                                                <div class=\"switcher-icon\">\r\n                                                            <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"open-icon\" src=\"https:\/\/www.plantcaretools.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/minus-regular.svg\" alt=\"\"\/>\r\n                                                                                        <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"close-icon\" src=\"https:\/\/www.plantcaretools.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/plus-regular.svg\" alt=\"\"\/>\r\n                                                    <\/div>\r\n                    <\/a>\r\n                    <div class=\"inner\">\r\n                                                                            <div><p>Rainwater is definitely the best water to give to your houseplants. It hardly contains salts (EC = minimal with low pH), so it must be fertilized regularly.<br \/>\nTap or mineral water contain many minerals (high EC to 0.8 mS \/ cm) and calcium (high pH to 8) which causes rapid blockage in plants. Especially bicarbonates play a major role here. It is therefore advisable to mix rainwater with tap water<\/p>\n<p>The pH level of irrigation water can be measured with a\u00a0<a title=\"professional pH meter for liquids like fertilizers\" href=\"https:\/\/www.plantcaretools.com\/en\/measuring-instruments\/\">pH meter<\/a>\u00a0and the total salinity of the water with an\u00a0<a title=\"professional EC\/TDS meter for liquids like plant nutrients\" href=\"https:\/\/www.plantcaretools.com\/en\/measuring-instruments\/ec-meter-liquids\/\">EC meter<\/a>\u00a0that we also have in our catalog.<\/p>\n<p>Houseplants or potted are container plants, which means they are in a pot with a limited amount of soil. The water that is administered, including all salts contents, end up right in the pot. The plant absorbs the salts (nutrients) that it needs in the form of dissolved salts, called ions. Water is how these salts are transported. If there are many unabsorbable salts in the water that the plant doesn\u2019t use, then the salts remain behind in the pot and gradually accumulate. This is also referred to as salinity which is harmful to the plant.<\/p>\n<\/div>\r\n                                            <\/div>\r\n                <\/li>\r\n                            <li class=\"accordion-row\">\r\n                    <a class=\"toggle\" href=#>\r\n                                                                            <h4 class=\"accordion-title\">What temperature should the water of potted plants be?<\/h4>\r\n                                                <div class=\"switcher-icon\">\r\n                                                            <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"open-icon\" src=\"https:\/\/www.plantcaretools.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/minus-regular.svg\" alt=\"\"\/>\r\n                                                                                        <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"close-icon\" src=\"https:\/\/www.plantcaretools.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/plus-regular.svg\" alt=\"\"\/>\r\n                                                    <\/div>\r\n                    <\/a>\r\n                    <div class=\"inner\">\r\n                                                                            <div><p>The best temperature is room temperature, this is the same temperature that the plant itself has in order to avoid thermal shock.

Some plants are in large pots and end up on the patio in the spring, right in the full sun. Thus, a lot of water is required. So, you can water plentiful in the morning, not too quickly of course, until water comes out the bottom of the pot. This also immediately drains out the salinity, but don\u2019t do this too intensely because otherwise you flush out the rich potting soil. Also make sure that the fertilization is done properly, because also fertilizers flush away. The frequency of giving the plant water depends greatly on the plant and the conditions.<\/p>\n<p>With a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.plantcaretools.com\/product\/plant-pulse-moisture-sensor\/?v=fa868488740a\">plant pulse moisture sensor<\/a>\u00a0in the pot of the plant, you will be alerted when the plant is thirsty.
