How To Water Epiphytes, Special Case Bromeliads
Luisa 
Estimated time: 2 min
Difficulty: easy
INFORMATION
Bromeliads have it all: as epiphytic plants, they collect water in their leaves, which are funnel-shaped and act as water reservoirs.
What you need
Step 1/5
Stick a finger 2 to 3 cm into the soil and check if the soil feels dry. Also check the funnels to make sure it needs water at all.
Step 2/5
If you have an FYTA Beam, just check the moisture values in the FYTA app!
Step 3/5
Water from the top of their funnel-shaped leaves and change the water every four weeks!
Step 4/5
Give your bromeliaceae some time to absorb as much water as it needs.
Step 5/5
When no more water is absorbed, tip away the excess water to avoid waterlogging. Use the rag to wipe up any remaining water. Done!
