[how to raise fire crane flowers in water] how to raise flamingos in water

Crane flower is a kind of plant with strong hydrophilicity. But hydroponics is a little more difficult. The flamingos in full bloom stand quietly in the water, with pure roots below and lively flowers above, which make people feel happy and relaxed. Among the foliage hydroponic plants, the hydroponic culture of crane flowers is relatively difficult. The phenomenon of rotting root is easy to occur. This is related to the characteristics of the flamingo flower itself. the root of the flamingo flower belongs to the aerial root, which is more sensitive to the ventilation of the environment. If you want to raise fire crane flowers well, you must control the number of times to change water and the capacity of water. The amount of dissolved oxygen in water and so on.

How to raise fire and crane flowers in water

The root breathing of the crane flower is very strong, and it is easy to hinder its breathing by entering the water directly. The best way is to use matrix, and the best matrix is ceramsite. Because the root of the crane flower is fleshy root, the leaf is extracted from the root, the general custom orchid + stone + easy method, it is not easy to send out leaflets. On the other hand, ceramsite is light in texture and sufficient in space, which makes it easy to pull out the leaflets. The fire crane flower hydroponically cultivated in my office is cultivated with ceramsite. It has been cultivated for 2 years, all of which are 3-4 flowers.

To cultivate crane flowers with ceramsite water, we should first wash the roots, trim the old roots, residual roots, and go to the flowers. no, no, no. Then put the plant into a container. Fill the ceramsite, then dilute the rooting powder in proportion, spray the ceramsite, be careful not to accumulate too much water below, if there is too much water, pour it out. After a long wait, you will be pleasantly surprised to find that the thick and white fleshy roots of the fire crane flowers grow on all sides, all close to the edge of the container. Congratulations at this time, a hydroponic crane flower is complete, the next thing to do is to add nutrient solution regularly to take care of its growth.

1. The flamingos, which have just been hydroponically cultivated with ceramsite, are not easy to accept direct sunlight and can be placed in the shade.

2. At the beginning of hydroponics, do not add nutrient liquid, add rooting powder is the best, if you can not buy rooting powder, leave me a message, I will teach you self-made rooting powder, the effect of using B12 is not very obvious.

3, the fire crane flower container should be slightly larger, it is best to be wide at the top and narrow at the bottom, showing a V shape, but also have a certain height.

4. How long can the fire crane flowers live by water culture? those who are hydroponically cultivated with ceramsite can live for a long time. I have raised them for two years and now produce leaves and flowers every year. It is estimated that the time will be longer.

5. If you want to cultivate Crane flower in water, it is recommended to use ceramsite to induce it, and then turn to pure water culture. Direct entry into the water is not recommended.

Culture methods and matters needing attention of Fire Crane Flower in Water Culture

Transplant: the potted fire crane flowers are dug out from the soil, cut off rotten roots, hairy roots and old leaves, wash the roots with clean water, disinfect them in potassium permanganate solution, and then wash them with clean water. If you use transparent glassware to cultivate crane flowers in water, it is best to cover the glass with a black plastic bag to prevent bright light. Cover it with a transparent convenient bag (heat preservation and moisturizing). Put it in a place where the light is scattered and the temperature is kept above 10 degrees.

Change water: the root breathing of the flamingo flower is very strong. It is necessary to change the water regularly, remove the mucus and some algae secreted from the root system, and cut off the old and rotten roots. This also helps to increase the amount of dissolved oxygen in the water, generally 2 or 3 days to change the water, winter can be changed once a week, each time to add a nutrient solution.

In hydroponic culture, as long as the roots of 1x2 are immersed in water, the other roots are exposed to the air so that the roots of flamingos can breathe. Insufficient dissolved oxygen in the water will lead to rotting roots of flamingos.

Light and temperature: fire crane flowers like warm, semi-overcast environment, avoid sun exposure. In the process of hydroponic culture, attention should be paid to the location, preferably in a place where it is ventilated and can avoid strong light. In summer, the ambient temperature of hydroponics should not be higher than 28 ℃, and the culture temperature of hydroponics should not be lower than 14 ℃ in winter. Below this temperature, the flowers will be frostbitten.
