How to care for巴西木 (B巴西wood) in a home setting
Today, the editor will introduce how to care for巴西木 at home, as well as share some small experiences about the cultivation methods and techniques of巴西木. Let's get started.
Many friends have watched videos about巴西木, where just adding a little water to a plate can make it survive. However, when they try to care for it themselves, they follow the video's instructions and still end up killing the plant. In fact, the video only introduced a part of the care process, and some necessary details were not shown, leading to problems.
Before hydroponic cultivation of巴西木, soak it in a fungicide solution for fifteen minutes. Hydroponically cultivated巴西木 is easily infected by germs, causing it to rot before the leaves even grow. Disinfection is necessary and the first step in hydroponic cultivation.
The water level in the container should be about 3-5 millimeters. It cannot be watered as with富贵竹, adding half a bottle of water each time. This method of watering will cause the巴西木 to rot due to immersion in a short time. Hydroponic cultivation is already against the growth rules, and immersion is an incorrect method. Water should only be added when the container becomes dry, alternating between wet and dry conditions for the巴西wood to grow normally.
Fertilize once a month by adding a small amount of liquid fertilizer to the container, then discard it after 24 hours and add fresh water. Fertilizers contain many substances that can easily breed bacteria when exposed to the air for a long time, eventually becoming moldy and smelly. Therefore, discarding it and adding fresh water after a period is like allowing巴西木 to eat well and rest before eating again. I hope this explanation is clear.
