What should I do if no one watered the flowers after going out for half a month?

When there is no one to take care of the flowers and trees at home due to business trips and tourism, the flowers only need to be divided into two categories: drought-tolerant and water-loving, and the drought-tolerant varieties only need to be watered thoroughly before going out, and placed in a cool, sheltered place will not be killed by drought soon. For water-loving flowers, especially precious varieties, one of the following methods can be tried:

Drip irrigation. Adopt a dropper device like hanging salt water, drop water into the base of the stem, so that the water droplets continue to penetrate and diffuse into the soil to be absorbed by the root system, and the speed of dripping water is adjusted according to the type and size of flowers and trees, this method is more advanced, and the effect is also better, but it must have a dropper device to be feasible.

Capillary action. Use a wick or strip of cloth with one end on top of the potting soil and the other end in a container filled with water, where the water level is higher than the potting soil. In this way, through the action of the capillary, the water can be continuously fed to the potting soil.

Cover bag moisturizes. After watering the plants thoroughly, cover the entire plant with a plastic bag. Because of the plastic bag, the moisture can be stored inside, and if water droplets form on the plastic sheeting, the water droplets can drip back into the potting soil, and the plastic bag can retain moisture for up to two to three weeks.

Be careful not to put the leaves in contact with the plastic sheeting, and do not place the flower pot covered with a plastic bag in a place with direct sunlight. When bagging, you should first insert 3 or 4 thin sticks above the height of the plant on the soil around the pot as support.

Sit on the water. Place the pot on a large, shallow pot filled with water, and the soil will slowly draw in water from the bottom of the pot.

Buried sand. In principle, similar to the above "sitting on water", for some small and delicate flowers and plants, buried in the wet sand together with the pot, it can also keep the soil moist.

Teach you to be a lazy watering artifact, and you don't have to worry about no one watering the flowers when you go out for half a month.

Please take care of your friends, the current climate is hot when it is hot, and it rains when it rains. I don't know what kind of plant you have. If it's a cactus, you don't have to. Hehe!

Use a thread to connect the flowers to the container of water, the thread should be soaked beforehand, and one end should be placed under the water, and the bottom of the container should be higher than the flowers, which I did during the holidays, because there was no one to water the flowers at home and school, which worked.

Now there are a lot of people who raise flowers, whether it is at home or in the office, raising a few pots of flowers, not only can green the environment, so that family members or colleagues feel particularly comfortable, and can use some special effects of flowers and plants, to the health of the human body, can also play some role. Especially during the festive season, keep a few pots of flowers at home to add to the festive atmosphere.

But the owner wants to travel or visit relatives and friends, no one is at home to take care of it, and the little flowers and grass also need to drink water! So what to do with the beloved flowers and plants?

In response to this situation, the author has collected some simple and easy methods for the reference of the majority of friends!

Tools Raw materials.

Beverage bottles, plastic bags, water basins.

Method steps.

Method 1: If it is a large flower. You can use a larger beverage bottle, fill it with water, and then pierce two to three small holes in the bottle mouth, and add a layer of plastic film at the bottle mouth, so that the water in the bottle is oozing out little by little.

It doesn't make all the water in the bottle fall into the pot all at once. This method is very effective for people who are on the road for a long time.

Method 2: Fill a sealed plastic bag with water, tie the mouth tightly, prick a few small eyes with a needle at the bottom, and put the bag into the flower pot, which can solve the problem of no one watering the flowers in time at home. The holding time depends on the amount of water in the plastic bag.

Method 3: Fill the water in a cup or small bucket, higher than the flower pot, put one end of the cotton cloth strip into the bottle, and the other end on the pot soil near the root, the water level in the container should be higher than the position of the flower pot. In this way, through the action of the plant capillary, the water can be continuously fed to the potting soil, so that the water can slowly penetrate into the pot.

Method 4: Cover the plastic bag method: After watering the plant thoroughly, cover the whole plant with a plastic bag and tie it to the pot.

Because of the plastic bag, the moisture can be stored inside, and if water droplets form on the plastic sheeting, the water droplets can drip back into the potting soil, and the plastic bag can retain moisture for up to 3 to 6 days.

Method 5: Use a deep pot with half a pot of water and then put the pot on it, so that the soil and roots at the bottom of the pot slowly absorb water and restore moisture. If the days of leaving are relatively long, do not guard against the combination of method three.

If you're away from home for a month, it's best to ask a friend to water the flowers, or you can choose to buy an automatic flower waterer. Also, the most commonly used method is to water with cotton thread, place a pot of water next to the potted plant, and then put the cotton thread in the water at one end and the pot soil at the other. The height of the water pot should be higher, and the flower pot should be lower, so that it can have a good hydration effect.

First, the bag method.

When we are about to leave, water the plants thoroughly, and then cover the whole plant with a plastic bag, be careful not to cover it completely, and give the plant a little room for ventilation, otherwise it may cause disease because it is too stuffy. The principle of this method is to collect the evaporated water of the plant for secondary use, and the evaporated water forms water droplets on the plastic bag, and the water droplets are returned to the soil for plant use.

Second, the method of burying sand.

This method is usually more suitable for small plants, which are too large to manage. In order to ensure the moistness of the sandy soil, we can also bury several small holes in the mineral water bottle filled with water and bury them in the soil.

3. Basin method.

This method, like the one above, is more suitable for small potted plants. The method is to prepare a large pot, put the potted plant directly into the pot, then water the potted plant thoroughly, and then put water into the pot, the height of the water in the pot should not exceed half of the potted soil, so that according to the principle of the communicator, the bottom of the potted plant will remain moist, and the upper soil will not be too wet.

Fourth, the drainage method.

This is the easiest way to choose a towel with good water absorption, put a pot of water on the edge of the pot, put one end of the towel in the water, and bury the other end in the soil of the pot, so that you can loosen the water in the pot through the towel. Isn't it easy?

Fifth, drip irrigation.

This method is also relatively easy to operate, hang a bottle of water on the top of the flower pot, drill a small hole at the mouth of the bottle, and replenish the soil of the flower pot through the form of water droplets, but the difficulty of this method is that it is not good to control the speed of water flow, the hole is big and the person may not drip before the water is gone, and the hole may not drip out if it is small, and then I came up with a drip irrigation method to strengthen the version, that is, directly insert the water into the soil, the hole is still not too big, and the soil is hydrated by infiltration.

I added a water-soluble fertilizer to the water, and it grew very well after using it.

1. Drip irrigation: use a small hose to insert it into the multiple parts of the flower, and let the water slowly drip in. Or you can also fill a plastic bag or utensil with cold water, find a wide cloth strip with good water absorption, put one end into the water of the vessel, and bury the other end in the pot soil, using this method to keep the pot soil moist for at least half a month.

2. Water sitting method: put the pot in a large shallow pot filled with water, because the bottom of the pot has a ventilation hole, the soil can slowly absorb water through this closed ventilation hole, so that the pot soil is kept moist for a long time, and it will not cause water accumulation.

3. Buried sand method: For some small and delicate flowers and plants, if you go out for a short time, you can bury the entire flower pot in the wet sand, so as to keep the pot soil moist.

1. Water absorption method: put one end of the towel into the water basin, and press one end under the flower pot to make the water penetrate into the pot. 2. Potting method:

Add moist sand between the two pots to allow the water to penetrate into the small pots. 3. Drip irrigation method: the drip acceleration can be adjusted according to the water demand of the plant.

4. Deep pot evaporation method: suitable for plants that need high humidity environment.

1. Water absorption method

If you are not at home for a month, you can use the method of water absorption to water, use a towel or a wide cloth strip with good water absorption, put one end of it in a basin filled with water, the water pot should be placed next to the flower pot and lower than the flower pot, press the other end of the towel on the bottom of the flower pot, and slowly infiltrate the drainage holes at the bottom of the pot to make the water infiltrate into the pot.

2. Potting method:

Put the flower pot in a larger flower pot, and add moist sand between the pots of the two flower pots, so that the water in the sand can slowly penetrate into the pot through the pot of the small flower pot, so as to water the plants, pay attention to the flower pot must be a mud pot.

3. Drip irrigation

Put the water into the bottle, hang the dropper bottle upside down, let the water in the dropper slowly drip into the pot, the drip speed can be adjusted according to the water demand of the plant, which is conducive to the normal growth of the plant, the dropper bottle can be made or use a special automatic flower waterer.

4. Deep basin evaporation method

Find a deep trough or bucket higher than the height of the plant, put a layer of shallow water, put the plants in the pot, and pay attention to the watering method of deep pot evaporation is suitable for plants that need a high humidity environment, such as white reticulated grass, arrowroot and begonia.

1. Watering method: For some flowers that do not require much water and are more drought-tolerant, such as cacti, you can water them once before leaving, and put them in a cool place, even in summer, a month without watering will not have much impact on its growth.

2. Potting method: For some flowers with strong moisture resistance, they can be sat in a larger pot or a larger shallow dish, and water can be put in the dish or pot, and the water level should not be too deep, so that the water will be continuously transported to the middle and upper part of the pot through the hair absorption of the soil. However, this method cannot be used for drought-tolerant flowers and positive flowers.

3. Drip method: you can fill a plastic bottle with water, and then use a needle bottle cap to prick a few 2 mm holes, bury it into the flower pot, the hole is attached to the soil, and the water will slowly seep out of the warm soil. However, it should be noted that the pinhole should not be too large, so as not to leak too quickly and make the soil too wet.

To prevent the formation of a vacuum in the bottle, several small holes can be pierced in the bottom of the bottle.

4. Water absorption method: you can fill a bucket or pot with water, choose gauze with good water absorption, soak one end in water, and bury one end in the bottom drainage hole of the flower pot, and then put the flower pot on a simple shelf in the bucket or pot. In this way, through the water absorption of the gauze, the water can be immersed in the basin.

5. Substrate infiltration method: for some small potted flowers, it can be placed in a larger pot, and the middle of the two pots can be filled with soil, wet sand, aquatic plants and moss with good water retention.
