Can reticulate grass be hydroponically cultivated? The method of hydroponic Culture of Rhizoma reticulata

Reticulate grass, as its name is, the green leaves of this plant have regular white reticulate lines, and green and white set off each other, clearly visible, very beautiful, so many potted friends like to plant them at home to decorate the home environment. some potted friends even made it into a bonsai for viewing.

In yesterday's article, the editor introduced the cultivation and maintenance methods of soil-planted reticulate grass, then some people may ask: can reticulate grass be hydroponically cultivated? In fact, reticulate grass can not only be planted with soil, but also can be hydroponically cultivated. So, how to cultivate reticulate grass in hydroponics?

Soil culture and water culture are two completely different concepts, and the most obvious feature is the difference in the medium used: soil culture allows plants to grow in the soil, and water culture allows plants to grow in water. The main points of hydroponic culture of reticulate grass are as follows:

1. Moderate lighting

Hydroponic reticulate grass is more sensitive to strong light direct light, especially should avoid summer strong light direct or exposure, but can not lack of light, so it is generally appropriate to receive scattered light. It is usually recommended to place the plant near the window, where the plant can receive scattered light through the window, and it is easier to control the light.

Second, the temperature is suitable

Most hydroponic plants should grow at a temperature of 5-30 °C, which is close to the body's sense of temperature. When the human body is comfortable with the temperature environment, hydroponic plants are also more suitable. The reticulate grass also has the same characteristics, so we should do a good job in temperature control in time.

Change the water at the right time

The most important and frequently used means to cultivate hydroponic plants is to change water. Whether the operation of changing water is scientific and reasonable will directly affect the growth state of plants. Therefore, for hydroponic plants, changing water is particularly important. As for the change of water in water culture, in addition to the need to change water frequently in the initial stage of water culture, the water should be changed once a week in spring and autumn, which can be appropriately shortened in summer and extended in winter. And the choice of water quality is also relatively strict, if tap water is used, it must be kept for a period of time before use before water exchange operation can be carried out.

Keep it clean

Most hydroponic plants like clean water sources, so we must use clean water when changing water, and we need to remove the sticky matter, withered branches and leaves, rotten roots and so on from time to time, so as to prevent the water quality in the container from being easy to breed germs and infect plants. However, in the process of cleaning up pollutants, we should be careful to avoid damaging plants, otherwise it is not only easy to affect plant growth, but also easy to lead to bacterial infection.

Fifth, replenish nutrients

As we all know, soil-cultivated plants generally grow in the original pot for too long and need to change the pot or topdressing to ensure that the plant can get the nutrients needed for growth in time. The same is true of hydroponic plants, which also need to wait for an opportunity to replenish them with sufficient nutrients to meet their growth needs. Reticulate grass is a good example. You can go to the market to buy a special nutrient solution for hydroponic plants, and then strictly follow the instructions for operation, so as to achieve the purpose of replenishing nutrients.
