Assuming you are talking about a houseplant palm, most should be watered when the top 1-2 inches of soil are dry. However, there are many variables such as type of palm, size of plant, type of pot, and indoor\/outdoor that can affect how often to water. Overwatering is the most common reason people kill their indoor palms, so it is best to err on the side of too little water rather than too much.<\/p>\n

It is best to water your palm tree plant once a week, giving it a thorough soaking. Let the top two inches of soil dry out before watering again.<\/p>\n

How often do palm plants need water? <\/h2>\n

When you are planting a palm in your garden, it is important to water the tree regularly. For the first week, water the tree every day. For the second week, water the tree every other day. After that, water the tree two or three times a week.<\/p>\n

It is important to water established palms only 2-3 times per week, and only when there has been no rainfall. Most palms will only require watering if the top 2 inches or so of the soil has dried out.<\/p>\n
