Is it better to raise Anthurium andraeanum with water or soil?

Potted Anthurium andraeanum mainly watch flowers and leaves, but at the same time put it indoors can also play a role in decorating the home environment and purifying indoor air, which is very practical. The Anthurium andraeanum that we often see is cultivated in soil, but in fact, Anthurium andraeanum can also be raised by water. But whether it is soil or water-raised Anthurium andraeanum, it often requires us to master scientific methods. So, is it better to raise Anthurium andraeanum with water or soil?

Commonly seen Anthurium andraeanum is planted in flowerpots and cultivated soil, but because of the soil, it is not so easy to take care of. After all, it is easier to dirty the environment if there is soil. If the water is raised, the environment often appears relatively clean and sanitary, and as long as it is easy to configure a better one for it, the overall ornamental quality of Anthurium andraeanum seems to be higher. Perhaps because of this, using water to raise Anthurium andraeanum is becoming more and more popular.

However, if the way of water culture is adopted to cultivate Anthurium andraeanum, it is often more technologically demanding than soil culture. In order to promote the rapid rooting of Anthurium andraeanum cultivated in water, the induction method can be adopted to promote the plant to germinate new roots, and the vitality of the root system is also strong. Once the water-raised Anthurium andraeanum takes root smoothly, the maintenance and management becomes much easier. However, in order to ensure the smooth rooting of Anthurium andraeanum in the process of water culture, it is usually necessary to use agricultural streptomycin to disinfect and sterilize Anthurium andraeanum, and to domesticate it with the help of nutrient solution.

For those who raise Anthurium andraeanum for the first time, soil cultivation is generally recommended. After all, the original soil is easier to take root and survive, and the technical requirements are relatively low. And if raised in soil, as long as the nutrients in the substrate in the basin are sufficient, it is often more suitable for the growth of Anthurium andraeanum. But at the same time, we also need to note that Anthurium andraeanum is a kind of epiphytic plant, and it is generally impossible to raise it well with ordinary soil. It is usually cultivated with nutrient-rich substrates such as peat soil and coconut bran. Of course, if some substances such as perlite or sawdust can be added to the culture medium to improve soil permeability, the growth effect of Anthurium andraeanum will be more gratifying.

Through the above analysis, it is not difficult to find that whether the soil of Anthurium andraeanum is better or better is decided entirely according to individual needs and preferences. Water culture appears to be more healthy and hygienic, and the plants grow more delicate and have higher ornamental value, but often have higher technical requirements; soil-raised Anthurium andraeanum has relatively low technical requirements, which is very suitable for beginners. But whether it is soil farming or water farming, we all need to do a good job in maintenance and management, otherwise everything will be in vain.
