At twice a week, am I watering my plants too much? No, I'm not talking about my lawn.?


Question:

Answers:
It really depends how dry your area of the country is. Here in Ohio,it is bone dry. I water all of my potted plants every other day. The non-potted get an early morning watering every 2 days. You need to fertilize at least once a week also. If your plants are in the shade they may need less water as well. Feel the soil,it shouldn't be very dry or soggy. If the leaves are droopy or turning brown -you are either under or overwatering. Moderation is the key!


If they are outside in the heat then they might need more than twice a week. Check and see how dry they are. If the soil feels dry then water them. If they are inside then once a week should be enough.
no kidding!have you check the soil if dry or wet?
No. I water my plants every other day, and they love that. When it's winter I cut back because where I live we get tons of rain. Depends on your weather. If the plant looks sickly cut back a bit and see what it does. But I'd say every other day is a good frame.
