How long does it take for hydroponic green pothos to root
For most women, the small experience of hydroponic green pothos rooting time and hydroponic green pothos maintenance tips, the following is a detailed introduction for you
Green pothos is usually seen cultivated in soil, and the growth of soil-cultivated green pothos is very fast. In fact, green pothos can be hydroponically cultivated. When rooted in water, the roots allow its branches to grow normally, but you must operate it properly. Today, Xiaoqi will talk about the operation method for everyone.
When hydroponically cultivating green pothos at home, some people often pull the green pothos out of the soil with its roots, wash the soil clean, and then place the roots directly into the soil. This method of hydroponics is incorrect because most of its roots grow in the soil, and it absorbs nutrients by absorbing them from the soil. If you put these roots in water, it will only lead to complete root rot in the water. Even if they don't rot, their ability to absorb nutrients is very weak, and they will basically be in a non-growing state. To hydroponically cultivate green pothos, you must remember to trim the branches first.
We can choose a longer branch of green pothos with a terminal bud, with a length of at least 10~20 centimeters, then剪掉 several leaves from the bottom, and try to keep the bottom with aerial roots. Trim several branches, then find a hydroponic container, insert the branches into the water, making sure at least two nodes are submerged, allowing the aerial roots to be immersed in the water. Be sure to add a few drops of root-promoting liquid to the water. It's best to find an opaque paper bag or newspaper to wrap the entire bottle. Then place it in a diffused light environment, with the temperature not lower than 15 degrees, and let it grow roots slowly.
During the rooting period, if the water gets slightly dirty, change it in time. Add root-promoting liquid to the water each time you change it. It's best to change the water every two days to promote fast root growth. If the temperature and lighting are appropriate, it can grow roots within 1~2 weeks, developing a lot of white roots. When the roots completely fill the pot, gradually remove the covering material, allowing it to grow in a somewhat sunny environment without direct sunlight. After that, you can reduce the frequency of changing the water, changing it when it gets slightly dirty. When changing the water, don't add root-promoting liquid anymore; you can add some nutrient solution instead. Hydroponic nutrient solution is the best. This ensures there are nutrients in the water, and the roots that grow in the water absorb the nutrients most appropriately and quickly, allowing the hydroponically cultivated green pothos to grow rapidly.
This is the method of hydroponic cultivation of green pothos. Using its own roots in the water is the most suitable. You must add nutrient solution to the water in a timely manner to ensure sufficient nutrients. Change the water when it gets dirty. Using dark materials to cover it in the early stage is to let it grow roots to fill the entire hydroponic bottle quickly. When the roots are full, remove the covering material. With more roots, the absorption of nutrients will be faster, and the growth will be much better.
That's the detailed introduction of how long it takes for hydroponic green pothos to root and the maintenance tips. I hope it brings some plant knowledge to green plant enthusiasts.
