The method and matters needing attention of hydroponic culture of Zhu Jiao

Zhu Jiao likes high temperature, is not cold-resistant, and has a strong ability to adapt to light. if it is too dark, its leaf color will turn to light green, and the ornamental value will be reduced a lot. Zhu Jiao can be cultivated not only in soil, but also in water. Hydroponic culture of Zhu Jiao may be a relatively novel way, but the success rate is still relatively high. The editor will introduce to you the points for attention in hydroponic culture.

Zhu Jiao

Hydroponic Zhu banana can dig up the soil-cultured plants from the soil, wash the soil of the roots, wrap the rhizosphere with soft things such as sponges, place them in the planting cup, and then place the planting cup in the hole slot of the anti-litter plate of the basin, so that the 2lap3 of the root system is immersed in the nutrient solution. Hydroponic plantain can also be cut directly, and the cuttings are usually cut in a jar filled with water in May-June and can take root in about 3 weeks.

The concentration of Hoagland nutrient solution, pH5.8, and the depth of the nutrient solution should be selected as the concentration of Hoagland nutrient solution, and the depth of the nutrient solution should be as deep as that of the pot. Change the nutrient solution every 15 min 25 days or shorten or prolong the replacement time according to the growth of the plant.

Proper shading is needed in summer to avoid withering and yellowing of leaves, and light is needed in other seasons. Often spray water to the leaves, which is beneficial to the luxuriant stems and leaves and bright leaves. In order to keep the bright color pattern of the leaves, the nutrient solution is mainly composed of phosphorus and potassium and less nitrogen.

Hydroponic plantain can also be cut directly, and the cuttings are usually cut in a jar filled with water in May-June and can take root in about 3 weeks.

In water culture, the concentration of Hoagland nutrient solution should be 1, pH5.8, and the depth of nutrient solution should be 2. 3 of that of pots. Change the nutrient solution every 15-25 days or shorten or prolong the time of changing the nutrient solution according to the plant growth.

Proper shading is needed in summer to avoid withering and yellowing of leaves, and light is needed in other seasons. Often spray water to the leaves, which is beneficial to the luxuriant stems and leaves and bright leaves.

The method of hydroponic culture of Zhu banana has been introduced. I hope it will be helpful to everyone. Aquaculture Zhu banana is more colorful than soil culture Zhu banana. You can try aquaculture Zhu banana.

Can red-leaf plantain be cultured in water? can I teach you the method of hydroponic culture of plantain?

Zhu Jiao is native to Malaysia, New Zealand and other countries, and there are many cultivated varieties, such as tricolor Zhu banana, red leaf Zhu banana, Hawaiian small Zhu banana, red edge Zhu banana and so on. The plant shape of Zhu Jiao is elegant and chic, and it is a common plant for decorating indoor places. Can red-leaf plantains be hydroponically cultivated? Next, let's take a look at the hydroponic culture method of Zhu Jiao.

Growth habits of Zhu Jiao

Zhu Jiao likes high temperature, is not cold-resistant, and has strong adaptability to light. It can grow in full light, semi-shaded or shaded places, but the best growth rate is 50% and 70% light. If it is too dark, the leaf color will turn to light green, which is not conducive to healthy growth and ornamental. The best growth temperature is 20-28 ℃. Suitable for fertile, loose, organic matter-rich loam. Culture Zhu banana should pay attention to shelter from the wind, dry and strong ventilation environment is very easy to make the leaf tip turn brown and cause the leaf to fall off. The overwintering temperature should be kept above 10 ℃.
