Can Gardenia be grown hydroponically?

Gardenia can be grown hydroponically. Due to its strong growth ability, the plant can survive well if the appropriate cultivation method is mastered. However, if the cultivation is not good, it will affect the growth of the plant. You can also choose soil cultivation, which is simple and easy to grow.

Gardenia hydroponic cultivation method

1. Branches: When growing gardenia in water, choose a place that is strong and has more than three branches, then cut off some leaves and disinfect them.

2. Root pruning: When growing gardenia in water, the roots need to be properly trimmed. Because the plant grows in water, it is prone to root rot, so it needs to be cleaned in time to avoid affecting its growth.

Precautions for growing gardenia in water

1. Supplement sunlight: When hydroponically cultivating gardenia, the plant needs to be exposed to sunlight so that it can better absorb nutrients and water. It cannot be exposed to too strong light, just scattered light will do. At the same time, it cannot be without light for a long time.

2. Add nutrient solution: When gardenia is hydroponically grown, nutrient solution should be added regularly. This operation method is conducive to better growth of the plant. Just add 2 to 3 drops each time. Due to the addition of nutrient solution, sphagnum moss will appear on the inside of the container, which needs to be cleaned in time.
