This article offers tips and experiences on how to care for富贵竹 in both water and soil cultivation, as well as some ingenious tricks for growing this plant. Let's follow the editor to find out more!
If the water cultivation of富贵竹 is not growing well, it's better to switch to soil cultivation. Once the roots sprout, it's a success.
富贵竹 is a variety that can be cultivated in both water and soil, with a strong adaptability to the surrounding environment. Of course, there may be cases where water cultivation is not suitable, which could be due to neglecting important factors like fertilizing and lighting.
Especially after entering autumn, the sun is really rare, making it not so easy to provide sufficient light for the富贵竹.
During this time, you can adjust your cultivation methods. For example, if water cultivation is not working, you can try switching to soil cultivation to see if it grows better. And if the plant is not doing well in the autumn after soil cultivation, can you switch back to water cultivation? Of course, you can, because if it's not doing well in soil, it might mean the plant needs more water.
When transitioning from water to soil cultivation, a key point is that water cultivation involves a lot of water. Therefore, when switching to soil, the plant needs to adapt to the new environment. In the new environment, soil is a crucial factor. If you don't choose a suitable soil, the plant may not adapt well and could develop poor growth.
How to cultivate富贵竹 in water and then transition to soil cultivation
In autumn, it is difficult for the富贵竹 to meet the light requirements, but you should still try to place it in a well-ventilated area. This way, even if you're not home during the day, the sun can still shine in. In autumn, the temperature is relatively low, and the water requirement is less than in summer.
At this time, it is recommended not to water the soil too much. Because overly wet soil can cause the plant's roots to rot from excess water. Normally, you should also pay attention to ventilation, not only to ventilate the indoor environment and let fresh air in but also to enhance air circulation, so the moisture doesn't accumulate and remain.
Moreover, if the indoor environment is always closed, it is very easy to breed bacteria, which is also harmful to the body even without plants, as everyone knows.
The edges of the leaves of富贵竹 can sometimes turn yellow due to insufficient water or lack of fertilizer, but if only the edges are yellow, it's not too serious. In this case, you just need to prune first, cut off the yellow parts, leaving only the green ones, and then supplement with water and fertilizer. But you must not forget to prune while focusing on supplementing fertilizer and water.
