Water-cultured plants are widely loved because of their simplicity, ease of maintenance, appearance and elegance. How to correctly maintain water-cultured plants and let them bloom at home has become a problem for many novice flower growers. This article will introduce you in detail the maintenance methods of water-cultured plants and help you easily raise beautiful green plants. Choose suitable containers and plants 1. Container selection: Water-cultured plants usually use transparent or translucent containers to observe the growth of the roots. The container materials are mainly glass and plastic. Metal containers should not be used to avoid corroding the plant roots.
2. Plant selection: Choose plants suitable for hydroponics, such as green radish, spider plant, copper coin grass, etc. These plants have low requirements on water quality and light and are suitable for beginners to maintain. Water quality and water replacement 1. Water quality: Water-cultured plants have higher requirements on water quality. It is best to use purified water or filtered tap water. Hard water and tap water containing more chlorine may easily cause plant roots to rot.
2. Change water: Water-cultured plants generally change water once a week. When the temperature is high in summer, the frequency of water change can be increased appropriately. When changing water, gently remove the plants and clean the roots to avoid damage. Light and temperature 1. Light: Water-cultured plants need appropriate amount of light, but avoid direct sunlight. Indoor scattered light or semi-shaded environments are suitable for the growth of water-cultured plants.
2. Temperature: The suitable temperature for the growth of water-cultured plants is 15-25℃ to avoid too high or too low temperatures to affect plant growth. Fertilization and pruning 1. Fertilization: During the growth of water-cultured plants, liquid fertilizers, such as special fertilizers for hydroponics, can be appropriately applied. When fertilizing, dilute them according to the proportions stated in the instructions to avoid excessive fertilization.
2. Pruning: Regularly prune water-cultured plants to remove withered leaves and weak branches, and keep the plants clean and beautiful. After pruning, pay attention to disinfection of the wounds to prevent bacterial infection. Notes 1. Observe the root system: Regularly observe the growth of the root system of water-cultured plants, and deal with problems such as root system rot and yellowing should be found in a timely manner.
2. Avoid water splashing: When watering, be careful to avoid water splashing on the plant leaves to avoid causing the leaves to rot.
3. Clean containers: Clean containers regularly and keep them clean to avoid the growth of bacteria.
The maintenance of water-cultured plants is not complicated. As long as you master the above methods, you can easily grow beautiful green plants. I hope this article can help you on the road to growing flowers and make your home full of vitality and vitality.
