Can water spinach be grown hydroponically?Water spinach can be grown hydroponically. It is an amphibious plant that can live in both dry land and paddy fields. However, hydroponics of water spinach have relatively high requirements for water quality. It cannot be stagnant water, but must be flowing water. Therefore, most people still choose to grow water spinach in soil, because soil-grown water spinach can provide water spinach with more nutrients necessary for its growth and development. Water spinach hydroponic cultivation method1. Seedling selection: Selecting branches with strong disease resistance and good growth can increase the survival rate of hydroponic water spinach. 2. Container: Before hydroponically growing water spinach, you need to choose a suitable container. Most people will choose a 72-hole or 123-hole tray. 3. Nutrient solution: Hydroponics of water spinach will result in insufficient nutrition for the spinach, which will slow down its growth rate. Therefore, hydroponics of water spinach requires nutrient solution. You can buy the nutrient solution from some agricultural supply dealers, or you can soak it yourself with wood ash and fertile soil, and then pour the extract into a container. Precautions for growing water spinach in water1. Time: You must choose the right time to grow water spinach hydroponically. Winter is too cold and will affect the normal growth of water spinach, so the best time should be spring and summer. The temperature in spring and summer is relatively high, which is a good season for water spinach to take root quickly. 2. Water quality: The water quality requirements do not necessarily require purified water, tap water is also acceptable, but it should be noted that before hydroponics, the tap water must be left to stand overnight to remove the chlorine in the tap water before use. |
