Can miniature coconuts be grown hydroponically?

Miniature coconut palm can be grown hydroponically, but soil cultivation is better because soil cultivation is not difficult and can be done outdoors or indoors. The plant grows very fast and easily overflows the pot. Hydroponics will make maintenance more difficult.

Methods and key points of hydroponic cultivation of miniature coconut

1. Prepare the container

The roots of hydroponic miniature coconuts need to be washed in advance. It is best to choose a ceramic or glass container with no holes at the bottom as a flowerpot, and the size should match the size of the plant.

2. Choose branches

Choose a healthy and strong miniature coconut palm, clean the roots and remove the old roots, wait for the roots to expand, and then you can start hydroponics.

3. Carry out hydroponics

Put an appropriate amount of clean water into the sterilized container, put some ceramic particles at the bottom of the vase, about 2-3 cm thick, and then put the plant into the vase.

Precautions for growing miniature coconut in water

The old roots of the miniature coconut are brown in color, very hard and unsightly, so they generally need to be pruned. One-third of the roots can be removed, and then they can be disinfected and re-cultivated with water.
