Introduction to the culture method of hydroponic Anthurium andraeanum!

Anthurium andraeanum is a perennial evergreen herbaceous flower, its flowers and leaves are very beautiful, the flower posture is peculiar, the flowering period is long, both hydroponic culture and soil culture, soil culture, soil culture is more, water culture is relatively less, here to introduce the culture methods of water culture of Anthurium andraeanum.

I. brief introduction of Anthurium andraeanum

1. Where is Anthurium andraeanum originated?

Anthurium andraeanum is native to the moist, semi-shady valleys of tropical rain forests such as Costa Rica and Colombia. it is often attached to trees, sometimes on rocks or directly on the ground. It is widely cultivated in Europe, Asia and Africa.

Is Anthurium andraeanum poisonous?

Anthurium andraeanum is poisonous. the toxicity mainly comes from the sap of flowers and root leaves, but the toxicity is not very strong. If you accidentally touch the juice of Anthurium andraeanum, or accidentally eat Anthurium andraeanum, it will be poisoned. Be careful not to accidentally eat and touch its juice to avoid symptoms of poisoning.

2. Introduction to the culture method of hydroponic Anthurium andraeanum.

1. Prepare the flowerpot

Hydroponic Anthurium should first prepare a flowerpot, unlike soil culture, the flowerpot can not be a leaky kind, it will be better if the translucent one is used, and the size can be determined according to the size of the plant or your own preferences, certainly not too small, lest the root system can not be stretched, you can use larger ones, and then you can raise small fish in water, plants and fish can benefit each other and form a scene accordingly.

2. Removal from the soil

Dig the Anthurium andraeanum from the potted soil, cut off the rotten roots, hairy roots and old leaves, wash it with clean water, put it in the potassium permanganate solution, and then wash it with clean water; put it in the flowerpot, if it is a transparent flowerpot, cover it with a black plastic bag to prevent strong light, and cover the plant with a transparent convenient bag to keep warm and wet; put the whole flowerpot in a place of scattered light and keep the temperature above 10 degrees.

3. Domestication and adaptation

Soil culture of Anthurium andraeanum into hydroponic culture needs to be domesticated, so that after it produces new roots in water, it is put into hydroponics. During domestication, the water should be changed frequently, once every three days in the first half of the month, and once a week in the second half of the month. Every time you change the water, you have to add a nutrient solution. After a month, new roots of Anthurium andraeanum will grow, and the new roots will relatively adapt to the aquatic environment.

4. hydroponic culture on the basin

It is better to use a translucent flowerpot. Put the domesticated Anthurium andraeanum root into a water basket, which can be placed in a river stone or ceramsite to fix the position of the plant, and the flowerpot can be filled with water to half or 2 times 3.

5. Daily maintenance

(1) temperature: the red palm sex likes the warm environment, the suitable growth day temperature is 26-32 ℃, the night temperature is 21-32 ℃, the highest temperature is 35 ℃, the low temperature is 14 ℃, and the water temperature is about 15 ℃ (including the irrigated nutrient solution).

(2) Illumination: Anthurium likes semi-overcast environment and is afraid of strong light exposure, so that the light can not be too little, so as not to cause discoloration, burns or scorching of leaves, so as to avoid discoloration, burns or scorching of leaves. If it is in a greenhouse, it can be regulated by movable shading net.

(3) humidity: Anthurium andraeanum likes the environment with high humidity, and it is better to keep the humidity at 70% ℃ 80% (temperature 20 ℃ 28 ℃). If the temperature is above 28 ℃, spray water on the leaves frequently. If the temperature is below 20 ℃, keep the natural environment indoors.

(4) Water change: water can be changed according to the actual situation, for example, when there are more impurities in the water, the water should be changed every three days in the first half of the month, and then once a week, just change half of the water, no more than 2/3 at most.

(5) Nutrition: the nutrient solution can be applied in combination with the water change. after each change of water, two drops of nutrient solution can be added, not too much, so as not to cause the rich nutrition of the water, the microorganism in the water will multiply quickly, and the oxygen content of the water will drop steeply. It's not good for plant growth.

The above is the introduction of the culture method of hydroponic Anthurium andraeanum. I hope it will be useful to you.
