Can Anthurium be hydroponically cultivated?

Anthurium can be cultivated hydroponically, usually by converting soil cultivation to hydroponics. Soil cultivation of Anthurium is better than hydroponics, because the nutrients in the soil are more abundant than those in water, and the nutrients in the soil can be absorbed by it in large quantities, which is conducive to the reproduction and flowering of Anthurium.

Anthurium hydroponic method and key points

1. Repot the anthurium and remove the soil. Rinse the soil at its roots with water, then trim off the yellow leaves and residual roots. Then soak the cleaned roots in disinfectant for 30 minutes. Try to choose a diluted disinfectant to avoid damaging the fragile roots of the anthurium. After soaking, place it in a cool place to dry.

2. Take out a round glass container, put stones on the bottom as decoration, then pour in clean water so that the water level is at two-thirds of the roots, and then fix the anthurium in the container. The hydroponics is now complete. You only need to add some nutrient solution to the water regularly.

Precautions for growing Anthurium in water

1. During daily cultivation, you can gradually clean the residues remaining at the roots of Anthurium. Never wash it forcibly, otherwise it will cause damage to the root system.

2. The root system of the anthurium should be properly pruned according to the water condition. The leaves should be sprayed with water several times a year, and the remaining flowers should be cut off after the flowers fade, and foliar fertilizer should be sprayed to allow the anthurium to grow normally.
