Can peanuts be hydroponically cultivated? Methods and precautions for hydroponics

Can peanuts be grown hydroponically?

Peanuts can be grown hydroponically, and can also be grown in soil. Hydroponically grown peanuts are generally used for ornamental purposes and will not produce peanut fruits. In addition, hydroponically grown peanuts require regular water changes, and the process is very troublesome. In comparison, soil culture is simpler and has a higher survival rate.

Peanut hydroponic method

1. Select peanuts : When growing peanuts hydroponically, choose dry peanuts with full grains. Such peanuts are easy to cultivate. Soak them in warm water and they will germinate in about 2 to 3 days.

2. Foam board : Foam board is needed in the process of peanut hydroponics. Use nails to poke holes in the board, remove the foam board from the roots of peanuts, and then place the foam board in a large transparent container filled with clean water.

Precautions for growing peanuts in water

1. Change water : When peanuts are grown in hydroponics, the water needs to be changed frequently, about once a week. Peanut sprouts grow very fast and are suitable for viewing.

2. Temperature : During the hydroponic culture of peanuts, you need to pay attention to the temperature. Generally, the temperature can be controlled at around 20 degrees. This can provide peanuts with a suitable growth environment and grow more vigorous peanut seedlings.
