It is watered by immersion, you just have to immerse the ball in a container full of water for 5 to 10 minutes or until it is completely saturated with water.
Remove the kokedama from the water, let the excess water drain before putting it back in place, you must place it on a plate or a base.
To determine when to water, feel the weight of the plant. If the ball feels heavy, no water is needed. If it feels light, soak the ball as directed. Approximately every 7 days.
The frequency of irrigation will vary depending on the location, in any case this is only an orientation, the frequency of irrigation also depends on the temperature and humidity, among other factors. So, adjust your watering based on the conditions your plant lives in.
