The fortune tree is relatively easy to raise and symbolizes good fortune, making it highly favored by people. Everyone must have seen potted fortune trees, and in fact, they can also be grown hydroponically, usually by following these points: appropriate lighting and temperature to avoid sunburn and frost damage; managing water levels and changing water regularly; and timely fertilization to ensure green leaves. Detailed descriptions are provided below.
I. Appropriate lighting and temperature
After hydroponic fortune trees are grown, it is necessary to maintain the ambient temperature between 16℃ and 26℃, which meets the growth conditions of the fortune tree. When the temperature drops below 8℃, the fortune tree will stop growing. It can be placed in a bright area with scattered light to allow it to photosynthesize sufficiently and grow robustly. Be careful not to expose the fortune tree to direct strong sunlight, as this may cause the leaves to turn yellow and wilt.
II. Managing water levels
When adding water to hydroponic fortune trees, the water level is generally maintained at one-third of the container. When the tree has not yet rooted, the water should be changed every three days. After rooting, the water can be changed every 10 days to prevent bacteria from thriving in the water and affecting the health of the fortune tree. Hydroponic fortune trees do not completely eliminate the need for watering; water should be added promptly when it evaporates and the environment is relatively dry. If the environment is dry, water can also be sprayed on the leaves or surrounding area regularly to ensure sufficient growth needs.
III. Timely fertilization
Regular fertilization can help the fortune tree grow better. Since it can absorb fewer nutrients, a nutrient solution can be added to maintain the required nutrients. Add 3-5 drops of nutrient solution, dilute it, and mix it into the water. Be careful not to add too much, as it may cause root burn.
