How to take care of the newly bought calamus

1. How to deal with calamus after buying it

You may want to use the stone attachment method to root the newly purchased calamus. You can collect them from the riverside, buy them online, or ask for them in stores. Select a few stones around where the calamus grows, place them in the water, and place the calamus on top to allow its roots to fully entangle.

2. How to cultivate the newly bought calamus

1. Pruning: After sufficient rooting and entwining, the yellow leaves of the calamus need to be cut off. Be careful not to damage the roots when operating. Regular leaf pruning can make its branches and leaves slender, increase its ornamental value and stabilize its growth momentum.

2. Nutrient solution: The selection of nutrient solution for aquaculture in water is also a science. First, there is no need to use nutrient solution during the planting period due to slow growth and development. After planting, the plant enters a period of rapid growth, during which it needs a large amount of nutrients. Diluted nutrients should be used, and the principle of small amounts and multiple times should be followed.

3. Light: It prefers a cool environment, but it also needs a certain amount of light. So right after you buy it, it’s best to place it under a large bonsai or in an area with diffuse light.
