How to cultivate hydroponic green radish to make it more vigorous?

Hydroponics of green radish is a simple and beautiful way of cultivation. The suitable water temperature for hydroponics of green radish is generally between 15℃-28℃. In winter, the water temperature should be ensured to be no lower than 15℃ to avoid damage to the green radish caused by low temperature. Let’s learn together how to grow hydroponic green radish more vigorously.

1. Choose the right container

Use a transparent glass container to make it easier to observe root growth. The container needs to be cleaned and preferably dried for a period of time to remove impurities.

2. Ensure water quality

Tap water needs to be left to stand for more than 2 hours to remove chlorine before use; purified water can also be chosen. Change the water every 3 days in the early stage, and every 7-10 days after the roots grow.

3. Supplement nutrients

Add a small amount of nutrient solution (such as 2 drops) after each water change to promote growth. You can add an aspirin or a rusty nail to the water to supplement iron.

4. Lighting management

Pothos prefers scattered light and avoids direct sunlight, otherwise the leaves will be easily damaged. After adapting to the environment, you can increase the light appropriately to promote the greening of the leaves.

5. Spray water to moisturize

Spray water on the leaves regularly to increase humidity, clean the leaves and promote chlorophyll synthesis.

6. Prune the roots

Prune the roots regularly to remove rotten or damaged roots and to encourage new root growth.

In short, choose branches with aerial roots for hydroponics, which will root quickly and have a high survival rate. The amount of water only needs to cover the aerial roots or stem nodes. Too much water will cause the root system to grow slowly. Place it in a well-ventilated place with sufficient diffuse light, and avoid direct air conditioning or an environment with a lot of oil smoke. It can make the hydroponic green radish grow more vigorously and the leaves are emerald green and shiny.
