Choose the right white crane taro to prepare hydroponics containers and materials, clean and disinfect the roots, hydroponics planting steps, daily maintenance of white crane taro, also known as one-leaf orchid, is a common indoor leaf-viewing plant. It is deeply loved for its unique leaf shape and fresh green. Planting white crane taro hydroponics is not only convenient, but also can better show its beautiful posture. This article will introduce you in detail the hydroponics method of white crane taro to help you easily grow beautiful green plants at home.

Green, no withered or spots. Prepare hydroponic containers and materials. The containers required for hydroponic white lily can be transparent plastic bottles, glass bottles or special hydroponic pots. The bottom of the container needs to have drainage holes to drain excess water. You also need to prepare some hydroponic special nutrient solutions, water and gardening scissors. Cleaning and disinfection Before starting hydroponics, soak containers and all tools in disinfectant (such as bleach) to ensure the hygiene of the plant growing environment. Processing the roots Remove the white crane taro from the soil, use gardening scissors to cut off rotten or sick roots, and retain healthy white roots. This step is crucial to the success of hydroponics. Hydroponics planting steps 1. Inject 1/3 of the clear water into the container, and then put the treated white calico into the water. The roots need to be immersed in the water, but the leaves need to be exposed to the water.
2. Add appropriate amount of special nutrient solution for hydroponic cultivation, dilute it according to the instructions, and pour it into water.
