Can hydrangea be grown hydroponically?

Hydrangea is a herbaceous plant of the Hydrangeaceae family. It can be grown hydroponically. It has relatively high requirements for fertilizer. The soil contains a variety of nutrients it needs. If it is grown hydroponically, it needs extra careful care to make it grow healthily. The cultivation process is relatively difficult, so it is more suitable for soil cultivation.

Hydrangea hydroponic cultivation methods and key points

1. Choose branches

It is best to choose branches that have just been picked from hydrangeas, remove excess leaves, and cut the branches to about ten centimeters. Such branches have a very high probability of taking root in hydroponics.

2. Selection of containers

You need to choose a transparent glass container as the container for hydroponic hydrangeas to ensure that sunlight can reach the entire hydrangea plant so that it has sufficient light.

3. Control water addition

When hydroponically cultivating hydrangeas, you need to find the right water quality. It is recommended to use purified water. The minerals in purified water can make hydrangeas more nutritious and grow more healthily.

Precautions for growing hydrangea in water

1. Change water in time: In the early stage of hydrangea hydroponics, try to change the water every day, and ensure that the water temperature is mild, and try not to use tap water.

2. Pay attention to avoid light: Be careful to avoid direct sunlight on the hydrangea. It is best to place it in a position with bright scattered light, which can make the hydrangea in hydroponics grow better.

3. Pest and disease prevention: Hydrangeas grown in hydroponics generally have pests and diseases, so they need to be protected from them. Different pesticides should be selected for pest control according to different pests.
