Last Updated: 2024/11/24, Hanging orchids can be raised by water, not only better ornamental, because of the transparent water foil, but also more sanitary, because there is no need for frequent watering. However, we should pay attention to some problems: the root needs to soak half in the water, not all in the water; fertilization is best to use a nutrient solution, not too frequently, once a month.

1. Is it OK?

Of course, orchids can be raised in water. Moreover, many people have done experiments and the results are very successful. In fact, this practice is very common.

2. Benefits of aquaculture

(1) first, it is more ornamental. Water-raised plants are generally more ornamental than soil-raised plants, because they have a transparent water foil. If you add a beautiful container, it will be the icing on the cake.

(2) second, it is more hygienic to do so. If soil-raised plants are to be watered, they will be spilled all over the place if they are not careful. Water-raised plants do not have this concern.

3. Points for attention in aquaculture

(1) it is important to change water. There are different intervals in different seasons. Spring and autumn usually take place once a week to ten days. There are more times in summer, usually once every five to seven days. Winter doesn't have to be so frequent, about once every ten days to half a month. Water can not be used directly from the faucet. It usually stays for two to three days until the chlorine in it is almost dispersed before use.

(2) pay attention to the position of the plant root, not all soak in the water, keep half in the water is enough. Otherwise, it is not conducive to the absorption of air, the corresponding plant growth will be weak.

(3) Water-raised plants also need fertilizer, but in liquid form, that is, nutrient solution. Generally speaking, twice a month is enough. Not too much.

(4) in addition, attention should be paid to ventilation to promote its growth.
