What fertilizer does water use to raise rich bamboo?
As an "evergreen tree" in the home green planting industry, water-conditioned rich bamboo is deeply loved for its tall and elegant plant type and beautiful meaning. But many people are often confused when maintaining: How to scientifically fertilize fertilizers in a hydroponics environment? This article will systematically analyze the fertilization methods of hydroponically rich bamboo from nutritional requirements, fertilizer ratio to operation details. The characteristics of fertilizer requirements for water-cultured rich bamboo are different from those of soil culture. The nutrient characteristics of the water environment are different from those of soil culture. The hydroponic medium lacks natural organic matter, and the roots are in direct contact with nutrient solution. The fertilizer must be completely dissolved and has precise concentration. For every 1 cm of stem growth, the plant consumes 0.3 mg of nitrogen, and the fertilizer requirement during the vigorous growth period increases by 40%. Differences in demand during the growth stage The rooting period (the first 20 days) focuses on phosphorus and potassium fertilizers to promote roots, the growth period (20-60 days) requires balanced nutrition, and nitrogen fertilizer should be controlled to prevent excessive growth during the shaping period (after 60 days). The amount of fertilizer applied during winter dormancy needs to be reduced by 50%. Guide for purchasing hydroponics rich bamboo fertilizer basic nutrient solution selection recommends a special hydroponics nutrient solution with an N-P-K ratio of 3:1:2, which contains trace elements such as iron and magnesium. Experimental data from a well-known brand showed that the leaves of plants using special nutrient solutions were thickened by 23%, and the yellow leaf rate was reduced by 65%. Functional additive·Rooting stage: Add rooting agent containing naphthylacetic acid (concentration 0.01%)·Prevention of yellow leaves: Supplement chelated iron fertilizer once a month (1:2000 dilution)·Winter maintenance: Add 0.05% vitamin B solution to enhance cold resistance Scientific fertilization operation skills Water change and fertilizer supplement cycle Water change every 7 days in summer and extended to 15 days in winter. After each water change, nutrients will be replenished according to the standard of adding 3 drops of nutrient solution to 500ml of water, and accurately controlled using a measuring cup. Concentration control points The total salt concentration must be <0.1%, which can be detected with a TDS pen. If the EC value of the aqueous solution is found to be greater than 800μS/cm, replace it with clean water immediately. Novices suggest choosing a slow-release nutrient to avoid the risk of root burning. Common maintenance misunderstandings Analysis of the consequences of excessive fertilization A laboratory case shows that when the concentration exceeds the standard by 50%, the root system becomes browned within 48 hours, and the leaves begin to curl within 72 hours. If fertilizer damage is found, the root system should be washed with clear water immediately and the damaged parts should be cut off. Alternative risks Family remedies such as white sugar water and beer will corrupt water bodies, and rice washing water may easily breed mosquitoes without fermentation. 0.01% glucose solution can be used for transition in emergencies, but it should not exceed 3 days.
Through scientific fertilization management, water-fed rich bamboo can maintain an ornamental period of 3-5 years. It is recommended to establish a maintenance log to record the time, type and plant response of each fertilization, and gradually master personalized maintenance plans. Regularly wipe the leaves with a damp cloth and add appropriate amount of light to keep your rich bamboos green all year round.
