Can mirror grass be grown hydroponically?Mirror grass is a herbaceous plant of the genus Pilea, which can be grown hydroponically. It likes a warm and humid environment. It is easy to grow roots during the hydroponic process and has a very high survival rate. The ornamental effect of mirror grass in water is much higher than that grown in soil, so the hydroponic cultivation method is more suitable for it. Mirror grass hydroponic cultivation methods and key points1. Choose branches: Remove the cultivation base of mirror grass. Be careful during the operation to avoid damaging the root system as much as possible, and remove excess leaves. Then soak it in 1000 times diluted carbendazim for about 10 minutes. 2. Selection of container: You need to choose transparent glass containers as containers for hydroponic mirror grass to ensure sufficient light during the growth process. 3. Control water addition: Just add clean water to the container, so that the water covers about two-thirds of the roots. Then you can add nutrient solution to make it grow more healthily. Precautions for growing mirror grass in water1. Change water in time: In the early stage of hydroponics of mirror grass, try to change the water twice a week and ensure the water temperature is mild. If you find that the water is not in good condition, add some nutrient solution. 2. Pay attention to lighting: Mirror grass cannot be exposed to direct sunlight during the hydroponic process. Just place it in a bright place. Excessive exposure to the sun will burn its leaves, causing them to turn yellow and fall off. 3. Proper fertilization: During the growth process of mirror grass in hydroponics, a small amount of liquid fertilizer can be applied once a month. If too much fertilizer is added, it is likely to cause its leaves to grow wildly and affect the development of the rhizome. |
