Can the latest rubber trees be hydroponically cultivated?

Rubber trees are famous potted foliage plants, such as rubber trees, Brazilian rubber and so on. They are big trees of the genus Banyan of Moraceae. Many of them do not know whether rubber trees can be hydroponically cultured in the end. In fact, the hydroponic culture method of rubber trees is very simple and does not require tedious steps. Let's take a look at the hydroponic methods of rubber trees.

Can rubber trees be hydroponically cultivated?

Rubber trees can be hydroponically cultivated and grow much faster than those in the soil if they are nutritionally suitable. The hydroponic cuttings of the rubber tree take root for 1 to 1 and a half months, and the room temperature in winter should not be lower than 5 ℃. If the room temperature is too low, you can cover the rubber tree with a layer of plastic bag, tie it tightly under it, and put it in a sunlit place, which can survive the winter safely.

Hydroponic Culture method of Rubber Tree

In the hydroponic culture of rubber trees, the small soil culture plants with better plant shape should be selected and raised by root washing. The old root is not perishable and can quickly adapt to the hydroponic environment. The strong growing shoots can also be cut off from May to September, the basal leaves can be removed and the incisions can be dried and then directly watered and cultured. Because the crown is heavy, it is best to add ceramsite to the container, which is not only conducive to plant fixation, but also conducive to rooting.

Hydroponic management of rubber tree

In the initial stage of hydroponic culture, the rubber tree changes the fresh water every 2-3 days, and gradually grows water roots after two weeks. When the plant is fully adapted to the hydroponic environment, it moves to the place where the light is sufficient, and the foliage plant nutrient solution is added for maintenance, and the nutrient solution is changed every two weeks. Rubber trees like the environment of high temperature, humidity and sufficient light, with moderate growth of 2232 degrees, overwintering temperature of more than 8 degrees, and strong negative tolerance. Rubber tree hydroponics should regularly clean the container, hydroponic container is easy to breed bacteria, in the change of water at the same time to clean the inner wall of the container, clean the roots of the rubber tree every two months, trim the old roots.
