Taking care of plants in the rainy season can be fun and relaxing. However, there are many challenges to meet first, like excessive moisture and the growth of pests and infections.
So here, let’s explore 7 useful tips that will ensure your plant's health and let them bloom.
Check water needs: In the rainy season, plants get their water needs from the moist environment. So, before pouring water into the pot check if the soil is dry or not.
Drainage system: A proper drainage system helps avoid waterlogging and eventually the rotting of roots. Check drainage holes and do repotting for the solution.
Loosen the plant soil: This gives space to roots and helps them to breathe and flourish with improved air circulation.
Pruning: Removing wilted or dead leaves cuts the risk of fungal growth and any infection which is commonly seen during rainy days.
Use row covers or perforated sheets to protect plants from heavy rain or wind.
Magic of rainwater: Containing nitrate, and free from salts, chemicals, and other treatments with a balanced pH level, rainwater works like magic for healthy plant growth.
Proper air circulation: If you have an interior garden ensure that they are growing in a properly air-circulated place to prevent fungal diseases and reduce humidity.
By following the above tips, you can ensure your plant’s maximum health and enjoy its positive green vibe in the rainy season.
