How often should i water my Moon Flower's?

17 years ago

I have several datura stramonium (tatula) seedlings, one with a set of official leaves, I am currently keeping them outside, so how often should i water them? I think i live in zone 9a, but if im wrong can someone look it up? i live in Redding California.

Datura usually doesn't need too much water. I water mine every couple of days, and that's probably excessive. You should be more careful with seedling, though, as they are quite fragile. Give them enough water to moisten the soil every three days, I say.
