Water with a Balanced Fertilizer: During the growing season, you can add a balanced fertilizer to your watering routine once every 3-4 weeks. This helps promote healthy growth and more abundant blooms. Be careful not to over-fertilize, as this can lead to excessive leaf growth at the expense of flowers.
FAQ:
1. How often should I water my geraniums?
It depends on the temperature and humidity levels. Generally, water when the top inch of soil feels dry, which is usually once every 3-4 days in warm weather.
2. Should I water my geraniums daily?
No, daily watering is not necessary. Over-watering can lead to root rot. Allow the soil to dry out between waterings.
3. What should I do if my geraniums are wilting despite being watered?
Check the soil moisture. If the soil is too wet or too dry, adjust your watering schedule. Also, ensure that the pot has proper drainage to prevent waterlogging.
4. Can I water geraniums with cold water?
It’s best to use room temperature or slightly warm water. Cold water can shock the roots and affect the plant’s health.
By following these simple tips and paying attention to your geraniums' watering needs, you'll enjoy a plant full of beautiful, vibrant blooms all season long!
