How to raise bamboos in water

Yuanbao bamboo is a kind of rich bamboo, which has high ornamental value. Many people like to raise several bamboos at home, so how to raise them in water?

I. bottle insertion

Water culture Yuanbao bamboo, it is best to choose transparent glass bottles rather than opaque porcelain bottles. On the one hand, it is convenient for us to observe the situation in the bottle, and on the other hand, it will not reduce its ornamental. Pay attention to pruning the root during the initial insertion, and remove the leaves at the base of the first insertion so as not to affect the growth of bamboo, depending on the size of your vase, and the leaves below the mouth of the bottle can be removed. In addition, you need to use scissors or knives to tilt and subtract a small part of the root, so that the bamboo can better absorb water, and the cutting should be as smooth as possible.

Second, temperature

Phyllostachys pubescens is suitable for growing between 16 and 26 degrees, and cold is easy to cause plant death. In winter, do not put in the balcony, windows and other colder places, do not let the water freeze. Anti-freezing measures can be taken when necessary.

Third, lighting

Hydroponic bamboos ensure adequate light, water-rich bamboos are generally placed indoors, although the requirements for sunlight are not high, but if completely out of contact with sunlight, it will also make the leaves withered and yellow and grow poorly. Therefore, it should be placed in a bright and ventilated environment as far as possible to make it fully exposed to light.

4. Use water

There are two kinds of water for hydroponic culture of Yuanbao bamboo, one is pure water, and the other is tap water. Pure water is pure water without any substance, using it to raise bamboo can ensure that bamboo will not be attacked by pathogens in the water. But farming with this kind of water has a certain cost.

Tap water needs to be prepared one day in advance and placed one day before it can be used. This is because waterworks use some disinfectant gases when providing tap water, which are slightly soluble in water. After placing the tap water for a day, it can basically ensure that these gases have volatilized and will not cause harm to the bamboo roots.

5. Fertilizer

For the cultivation of Phyllostachys pubescens, fertilizing once a month, for water-raised plants, we generally ignore fertilization, in fact, fertilization can make the plant grow better, water inserted rich bamboo can be fertilized once a month, you can go to the flower market to choose professional fertilizer, or add a few drops of dissolved vitamin C1 when adding water.
