An article about the types of flowers that can be grown hydroponically and a summary of the experience related to planting 10 easy-to-grow hydroponic plants. Let's learn about it together.
Compared with traditional potted flowers, hydroponic plants have their unique advantages: clean and hygienic, fewer pests and diseases, no odor, good ornamental value, can be observed for both leaves and roots, and are deeply loved by some flower enthusiasts. Placing hydroponic flowers in the living room, balcony, or office makes them look upscale and stylish, and they are also time and labor-saving to manage. The following 10 plants, which can survive by "drinking water", have strong endurance and are suitable for hydroponic cultivation.
1.富贵竹 (F ortune Bamboo)
Hydroponic Fortune Bamboo is evergreen throughout the seasons, easy to manage, highly ornamental, and symbolizes good fortune. It is suitable for placement in homes or offices. During maintenance, when the water in the bottle becomes cloudy with sediment, it is important to change the water, and it is best to use cooled boiled water.
When changing the water, use the "half new and half old water" method, that is, half new clean water and half of the original solution in the bottle. This method helps to "revitalize the roots" and is more beneficial for the growth of Fortune Bamboo.
2.绿萝 (Devil's Ivy)
Hydroponic Devil's Ivy grows slower than soil-grown ones but is clean and easy to manage with good ornamental value. During maintenance, it can be given appropriate lighting, and the leaves can be sprayed with nutrient solution irregularly to supplement nutrition, making the leaves greener and more beautiful.
3.常春藤 (English Ivy)
Hydroponic English Ivy is aesthetically pleasing and easy to manage. Regularly change the water and supplement with liquid nutrient solution. The method of changing water refers to the maintenance of Fortune Bamboo.
4.鹅掌柴 (Duckbill Begonia)
Hydroponic Duckbill Begonia can矮化 the plant well, control its growth rate, and enhance its ornamental value. Placed on an office desk or coffee table at home, it is very beautiful. Pay attention to water and fertilizer management during maintenance, and change the hydroponic container according to the plant's growth rate to adapt to Duckbill Begonia's growth.
5.红鹤芋 (Red鹤芋)
Red鹤芋, also known as Red Palm. Hydroponic Red鹤芋 has relatively weak oxygen tolerance in its roots, and the roots may become oxygen-depleted and turn black when soaked in water for a long time. It is recommended to place one-third of the roots in water or connect them to the roots with water-absorbent cotton. This way, the hydroponic Red鹤芋 will have lush green leaves and a long blooming period, and can bloom all year round with good care, providing high ornamental value.
6.袖珍椰子 (Mini Coconut)
Hydroponic Mini Coconut has good shade tolerance and fine roots. When hydroponic, try to avoid trimming the roots and only trim them when the root system becomes developed. Usually, pay attention to changing water and increasing nutrient solution, with rough management, long lifespan, and good ornamental value.
7.合果芋 (Arrowhead Vine)
