3 kinds of simple and easy-to-care-for hydroponic plants, which can survive with water alone and easily thrive
People who like to grow flowers often like to place a few hydroponic plants indoors in bottles, which allows them to observe the growth of the roots. The roots are transparently exposed in the hydroponic bottle, which is very beautiful and grows very well. Many flower friends use hydroponics for all their plants, but this is not appropriate. Some plants are not suitable for hydroponics. Today, Xiaoqi introduces several plants suitable for hydroponics.
The first plant is the pennywort. Pennywort can be hydroponically cultivated, soil-cultivated, or semi-soil and semi-water cultivated. It grows very fast and is very easy to care for. As long as we put it in a hydroponic bottle, cut off the leaves to retain only the rhizome, and put it inside with the water level not too high, it will gradually grow leaves within a week. It is very easy to care for. However, in the process of hydroponic cultivation, we must remember to change the water in time when it gets slightly dirty, otherwise the roots will be contaminated. Also, add some nutrient solution to the water during regular water changes to ensure sufficient nutrients. The branches it grows will be very strong, and the leaves will be large and glossy.
The second plant is the lucky bamboo, which is not unfamiliar to everyone. It is the most suitable for cultivation in water, and its roots grow very abundantly. As long as a section of stem is inserted into the water, it can survive and quickly grow roots. However, remember that the temperature should not be lower than 15 degrees, otherwise it will be difficult for it to grow roots and will be in a semi-dormant state below 15 degrees. The method of care is the same, regularly changing the water to prevent the water quality from getting dirty. Add a few drops of nutrient solution to the water during water changes to ensure sufficient nutrients. Also, as it is a flower from the south, it is best to add a few drops of vinegar to adjust the acidity of the water when changing the water, which is best in the north.
The third hydroponic plant is the common one-leaf lotus in the market now. One leaf can be put into the water to grow roots, and after the roots grow, it can grow more leaves from the bottom. Even if a single leaf is cut off and put into the water separately, it can still grow roots. It is very easy to care for. Remember to keep the water quality clean and regularly add a few drops of nutrient solution to ensure it gets light. It is best to use a shallow pot for cultivation, so it can grow well.
Actually, there are many suitable hydroponic plants, such as the red candle, white candle, pothos, and hanging orchid, etc., which can all be used for hydroponics. However, remember not to directly cultivate them in water from the soil. Instead, wash the roots clean and put them in water for cultivation. The roots in the soil are not suitable for growth in water. The best method is to remove most of the original roots and let them grow new roots, which will directly contact the water and grow in it. This is the most suitable and will not easily cause problems, adapting to the hydroponic environment. The care method is the same as before. Several things must be done well when growing hydroponic plants: regularly change the water to prevent it from getting dirty, add some nutrient solution to the water during water changes to ensure sufficient nutrients in the water, and for acid-loving flowers, add a few drops of vinegar to the water every 1-2 months to adjust the acidity and alkalinity of the water. Otherwise, it is difficult to grow well in the north. This is the method. Have you learned it?
The above is a comprehensive explanation of what are some easy-to-care-for hydroponic plants and the truly suitable hydroponic flowers, hoping to help you.
