Can cold water flowers be hydroponically cultivated? Water cultivation methods and precautions

Can cool water flowers be hydroponically cultivated?

Pile is a perennial herb of the genus Pile of the Urticaceae family. It can be grown hydroponically. Pile is a plant that prefers a cool environment. Pile grown hydroponically will have a more brilliant color and appear more charming against clear water, so it is more suitable for hydroponics.

Methods and key points of hydroponic cultivation of cool water flowers

1. Choose branches:

It is best to choose branches of cool water flowers with terminal buds and put them in water for hydroponics. They will take root in about ten days and have a very high survival rate.

2. Selection of container:

Because the survival rate of hydroponic cultivation of Pilea coleus is very high, it does not have high requirements for containers. Try to choose more elegant containers for hydroponics to improve the ornamental value of Pilea coleus.

3. Control water addition:

After adding water, make the water about one centimeter deeper than the branches to ensure that the branches are submerged. Also, be sure to add nutrient solution appropriately during the growth process to ensure that it has sufficient nutrients.

Precautions for growing cool water flowers in water

1. In the early stage of hydroponics, try to change the water every day and cut off some poorly growing fibrous roots in time. After new roots grow out in about a week, the frequency of water changes can be reduced.

2. Be careful to avoid direct sunlight on the cool water flower. It is best to place it in a position with bright diffuse light, which can make the jasmine in hydroponics grow better.

3. After the seedlings survive, the bud core should be removed in time to make the overall shape of the Pilea coleus fuller.
