How to make a waterfall with Dichondra? can it be hydroponically cultivated?

Dichondra, this plant is super good-looking, if you can develop a large basin that is even more beautiful, how to develop a waterfall? Can Dichondra repens be hydroponically cultured?

How does Dichondra make a waterfall:

1. Environment

The growth of Dichondra should maintain enough light, be exposed to more sunlight every day, and be well ventilated, so that Dichondra can grow exuberant and green.

Dichondra has the habit of growing in both light and shade, and can also grow in semi-damp places.

The seedlings of Dichondra repens are irrigated once or twice a week after they are unearthed, and the times of irrigation should be increased when the weather is relatively dry.

After maturity, watering should be controlled in early spring and early winter, and the watering times should be determined according to the soil quality in the Spring Festival growing season.

Dichondra prefers nitrogen fertilizer, usually combined with rain or watering, appropriate amount of nitrogen fertilizer, a lot of water should be irrigated after fertilization to reduce the degree of leaf burn.

Or fertilize first, then sweep the fertilizer under the leaves, and then combine with watering. At the same time, the high temperature in summer can not be fertilized.

It is necessary to keep the soil moist when breeding. Be careful not to lack water, which will cause Dichondra to lose its leaves and sparse branches and leaves, which will affect ornamental.

When there is plenty of water, the Dichondra cultivated in the hanging basin will have thick branches and leaves.

You can often spray water on the plants of Dichondra repens.

3. Pruning

If you want Dichondra to produce the effect of a waterfall, another important thing is pruning.

The growth rate of Dichondra is relatively fast, so proper pruning can make its branches and leaves more and thicker.

Can Dichondra repens be hydroponically cultured?

It can be hydroponically cultivated.

1. Selection of hydroponic utensils

Generally speaking, any container with no hole and no leakage at the bottom except metal can be used. However, in order to facilitate the growth and change of the root and the natural beauty of the shape, it is best to use a transparent glass container. Glassware specially used for hydroponics can be used, or water cups, beer cups, teacups, fish tanks, ceramic cans, bamboo and wood craft buckets can be used instead.

2. The substrate of hydroponics.

Hydroponic flowers had better choose pure water and tap water (use after a few hours), try not to use river water, well water or pond water; hydroponic plants can use ceramsite as a matrix, the advantage of ceramsite is conducive to plant rooting, not only conducive to the growth of new roots and prevent the decay of old roots, but also conducive to the fixation of plants.

3. Hydroponic nutrient solution

Nowadays, there is a rich supply of hydroponic nutrient solution on the market, which is generally divided into three categories: foliage plant nutrient solution, flowering plant nutrient solution and fruit plant nutrient solution. When purchasing, you should choose the corresponding nutrient solution according to the kinds of plants you grow. You should read the instructions before use.

This is the end of the method of drawing Dichondra to form a waterfall. This Dichondra can be hydroponically cultivated. Come and try it as soon as possible.

How to water and fertilize the seeds of Dichondra repens

Dichondra, this is also a kind of plant, is known by many people, but many people know it and can be hydroponically cultivated, so what is the seed planting method of Dichondra repens? How to water and fertilize:

Seed planting methods of Dichondra repens:

1. Land preparation

Do a good job in the topography of the land, where it should be high and where it should be depressed. Once the seeds are planted, it is not good to change the terrain. After determining the topography, remove all weeds and apply 3-5 tons of agricultural fertilizer per mu. The fermented chicken manure and cow manure are the best, and all the topsoil is ploughed once.

two。 Sowing seeds

After finishing the land, you can sow. The seeds of Dichondra repens are small and mainly sowed. When there is no wind, sow the seeds evenly, then cover the soil with a little positive pressure of 1cm to 2cm and cover with plastic film or degradable non-woven fabric after watering. If the temperature is good, germinate in about 10 days. after germination, pay attention to timely watering to accelerate the growth of shoots. Within 2 months of planting Dichondra, you need to weed manually. Remember not to use herbicides. Currently, no herbicide can be used on Dichondra repens.

The area of the courtyard garden is small, and the mechanical cultivated land is difficult, so it is generally used to turn the soil or spray water to sow seeds. If you can't turn the soil, remove the weeds and sow the seeds directly, but water them every day before germination to keep the seeds absorbing enough water to guide about half a month after germination.

How to water and fertilize Dichondra repens:

Watering is the key to the good growth of Dichondra. Dichondra is a plant with fine root system, which is not very resistant to drought and needs to keep the soil moist when breeding. In general, when raising Dichondra, it needs reasonable watering and often sprays water on the plants of Dichondra. Be careful not to lack water, which will cause Dichondra to lose its leaves and sparse branches and leaves, which will affect ornamental. When there is plenty of water, the Dichondra cultivated in the hanging basin will have thick branches and leaves.

Fertilization is also a very important step, Dichondra prefers nitrogen fertilizer, adequate fertilizer branches and leaves will grow more luxuriantly, but also easier to create a waterfall effect of hanging basin Dichondra. When raising Dichondra repens, nitrogen fertilizer can be applied in combination with watering, but do not pollute the leaves.

This is the end of the method of planting Dichondra seeds. Now you know how to water and fertilize.
