Can lucky bamboo be hydroponically cultivated? Hydroponics methods and precautions

Can lucky bamboo be hydroponically cultivated?

Lucky bamboo can be grown in water, but the process of hydroponics requires frequent water changes, which is a relatively complicated process. In addition, root rot is likely to occur if not properly maintained. Lucky bamboo can be grown in soil, and daily management is very simple. You only need to water it to keep the soil moist. In addition, the ornamental value of soil-grown lucky bamboo is also particularly high.

How to cultivate lucky bamboo hydroponically

1. Branches

When hydroponically cultivating lucky bamboo, the branches need to be pruned and cut into small sections of more than 20 cm. This length is more suitable for the growth of lucky bamboo.

2. Use water

   When hydroponically cultivating lucky bamboo, you can directly use tap water and let it stand for 24 hours. This can effectively filter out the chlorine in the tap water. Then put it in the sun to increase the water temperature.

Precautions for growing lucky bamboo in water

1. Add nutrient solution

   When growing lucky bamboo in water, you need to add nutrient solution. It is best to choose an acidic nutrient solution to ensure that the lucky bamboo contains acidic substances. Generally, you only need to add nutrient solution every month or so to maintain the normal nutrients required for growth.

2. Change the water

   Before hydroponically cultivating lucky bamboo, you need to add rooting liquid to make it grow roots quickly. After rooting, you only need to change the water every half a month to a month.
