Hydroponics Plant Methods Hydroponics Plant Considerations As the pace of life accelerates, more and more people are paying attention to the maintenance of indoor green plants. Hydroponics plants are popular for their simple maintenance and appearance. Hydroponics plants can not only beautify the home environment, but also purify the air and improve the quality of life. This article will introduce you in detail the methods and precautions for hydroponics plants to help you easily raise healthy and beautiful hydroponics plants. Hydroponics plant methods 1. Choose the right container Hydroponics plant containers should be made of transparent, corrosion-resistant and breathable materials, such as glass, plastic, etc. The size of the container should be compatible with the plant roots to avoid being too large or too small.
2. Preparing growth substrates Hydroponic plant growth substrates are generally made of perlite, vermiculite, ceramsite, etc. These materials have good air permeability and water retention, which is conducive to the growth of plant roots.
3. Plant selection When selecting hydroponics plants, the root adaptability of the plants should be considered. Some plants suitable for hydroponics include green radish, spider plant, hydroponics anthurium, hydroponics fortune tree, etc.
4. Plant planting Remove the plant from the soil, remove dead leaves and sick leaves, wash the root system with clear water, place the root system into the growth substrate, adjust the height of the plant, and ensure full contact between the root system and the growth substrate.
5. Watering and lighting Hydroponics plants need to be watered regularly to keep the growth substrate moist. When watering, be careful not to splash water on the leaves to avoid causing diseases. Hydroponics plants need sufficient light to ensure 4-6 hours of light every day.
6. Water change and fertilization During the growth of hydroponics plants, clear water needs to be replaced at regular intervals to keep the water quality clean. Appropriate amounts of hydroponics special fertilizers can be applied to supplement the nutrients needed by plants. Precautions for hydroponic plants 1. Avoid direct sunlight Hydroponic plants should not be exposed to direct sunlight for a long time to avoid sunburn on their leaves. They can be placed in places with sufficient scattered light, such as window sills, balconies, etc.
2. Pay attention to water quality Hydroponics plants have high water quality requirements. Clean and non-polluting tap water or purified water should be used. If tap water is used, it needs to be placed for a period of time to allow chlorine to evaporate.
3. Prevent pests and diseases from occurring in hydroponic plants, such as powdery mildew, root rot, etc. When pests and diseases are discovered, they should be dealt with promptly to avoid spreading.
4. Pay attention to the root system status and regularly check the root system of hydroponics plants. If the root system is rotten or yellowing, the growth substrate should be replaced in time and disinfected.
5. Avoid frequent water changes that will cause damage to plant roots and affect growth. Generally, it is enough to replace clear water every 1-2 weeks.
Hydroponics plants are an easy-to-learn indoor maintenance method. By mastering the correct methods and precautions, you can easily grow beautiful green plants at home. During the maintenance process, pay attention to the growth status of the plants and adjust the maintenance measures in a timely manner. I believe that your hydroponics plants will thrive.
