Net-grass can be grown in water. First, take the net-grass out of the soil and wash its roots. Second, put the net-grass in a container and only put 2/3 of its roots in the water. Finally, place the net-grass in a cool place to grow, away from strong sunlight.

Hydroponic cultivation method of net grass

During the hydroponic culture of spiderwort, you can change the water once a week to keep the water clean, and add some nutrient solution every half a month. Under normal circumstances, it cannot be placed in direct sunlight, otherwise the leaves will be sunburned. It is best to place it in a place with sufficient scattered light and not in a cool place for maintenance.

Net-veined grass has a wide adaptability to water quality and can use ordinary tap water. The water needs to be changed every 3-4 days in summer, and half of the water needs to be replaced each time. In winter, the water can be changed every 7 days, and one-third of the water needs to be replaced each time. It should not be exposed to too strong sunlight during maintenance, and it is best to place it near a bright window for maintenance.

How to grow spiderwort without yellowing leaves

Excessive watering: Net-veined spiderwort needs a certain amount of water, but giving too much water will cause water accumulation in the flowerpot, resulting in falling and yellowing leaves. Just water it according to its growth. Place it in a well-ventilated place and control watering at normal times.

Exposure to the scorching sun: If the spiderwort is exposed to the scorching sun in summer, its leaves will turn yellow and it can be moved to a cool place for maintenance. It likes a warm growing environment. Once the growing environment is low in winter, it will cause yellow leaves. It can be moved indoors and exposed to more sunlight.

Precautions for hydroponic netgrass

1. Net-veined grass likes a warm growing environment. The suitable growth temperature is between 18-25 degrees. It has poor cold resistance. If the temperature is lower than 12 degrees, the leaves will suffer from cold damage. Net-veined grass may die at about 8 degrees Celsius.

2. Anthracnose, aphids and other pests and diseases often occur during the water culture of spider grass. They can be prevented and controlled by spraying pesticides. If the environment is humid or the water is not changed in time, root rot will occur. As long as the disease is found, flower lovers should use thiophanate-methyl or carbendazim to prevent and control it in time.
