Green radish and pennywort... I dug a hole and poured some water into it, and it suddenly grew wildly, with leaves bigger than 5 coins!

How does the green radish grow half soil and half water?

Flower lovers often worry about why their green ivy just can’t survive no matter whether it is grown in soil or hydroponics? Don’t worry, today Huahua will teach you a good method, which is half soil and half water! Come and take a look!

Steps:

1. Use disinfected shears to cut the branches from the green radish plant. Each branch should be about 7-10 cm long, and 2-3 leaves should be retained on each branch.

2. Put the pruned green radish branches into carbendazim solution for disinfection for 20-40 minutes, and then place them in a cool and ventilated place to dry the wounds.

3. Prepare a larger flower pot or fish tank, add nutrient soil to the bottom first, you can also mix some sand into the nutrient soil, the height should be about 1/3 of the flower pot, then pour water into the flower pot, it is enough when the water level is about 2/3 of the height of the flower pot.

4. Insert the dried green radish branches into the soil, making sure the lower end of the branches is in the soil, the middle branches are in the water, and the upper branches and leaves are in the air. In order to prevent the green radish branches from tilting, you can also add some small stones on the soil surface to fix them.

5. Place the green radish in a well-scattered light place indoors. Add water when you see the water is dry. Every 1-2 weeks, you can throw 3-5 grains of compound fertilizer into the water. Soon the green radish will bloom out of the pot!

How does the pennywort grow half soil and half water?

Huahua usually likes to grow pennywort the most. After all, it is very easy to grow. Even if the leaves droop due to lack of water, just water it thoroughly once and the branches will stand upright immediately. It is super easy to grow!

Steps:

1. First, you need to prepare a large flower pot. Because the half-soil and half-water pennywort grows very fast and fills the pot very quickly, you must prepare a larger flowerpot. Do not make holes at the bottom of the flowerpot before preparing nutrient soil.

2. Fill the prepared nutrient soil into the flowerpot, about 2-4cm thick, and then insert a section of pennywort rhizome into the soil.

3. Add water to the soil, making sure the water level is about 1-2 cm above the soil. In about 2-4 days, you will find that a rhizome of the pennywort that is half soil and half water has grown two runners.

4. If you want the pennywort to grow faster, add compound fertilizer to the water once a week, 1-2 grains each time. (The white dots in the picture are compound fertilizer particles)

5. When the pennywort grows more and more, the roots gradually begin to emerge from the water. At this time, you can add some soil to cover the roots completely.

6. Place the pennywort on the south windowsill and turn the flowerpot approximately once a week to prevent it from falling to one side. It only takes a month for you to see the pennywort growing all over the flowerpot!

7. In addition to daily watering and sunshine, once you find that the pennywort is blooming, you must cut off the flowers in time to avoid nutrient consumption. This will allow the leaves of the pennywort to grow bigger and bigger, even bigger than coins!

How does lucky bamboo grow half soil and half water?

When talking about lucky bamboo, many flower lovers’ first reaction is yellow leaves! Whether it is hydroponically grown or soil grown, the lucky bamboo at home always seems to like yellow leaves! What should I do? Why not try the half soil and half water method!

Steps:

1. If the roots of your lucky bamboo at home are rotten and turning yellow, first use scissors to cut off all the yellow leaves.

2. If the roots of lucky bamboo have rotted, cut off the rotten parts and let it grow roots again. You can use a sterilized knife to cut the lucky bamboo at a 45° angle to increase its contact area with the water surface, thereby promoting rooting.

3. Prepare a taller bottle, put about 2-4 cm of sterilized fine sand at the bottom of the bottle, then put the lucky bamboo into the bottle, allowing the bottom of the lucky bamboo to touch the sand. If you don't have sand at home, you can also put pebbles in the bottle.

4. Place the lucky bamboo in a bright and ventilated place indoors, away from direct sunlight. If you see that the water is turbid or has an odor, change the water directly. You can use mineral water or boiled water, not tap water directly. Because tap water contains chlorine, using it directly will cause root rot and yellow leaves.

5. In about 20 days, the lucky bamboo will be able to take root again. After rooting, you can add 2-3 drops of nutrient solution every half a month, and soon the lucky bamboo will sprout white roots!

6. In order to prevent the leaves of lucky bamboo from turning yellow due to iron deficiency, you can also add a rusty nail into the bottle, or scrape the iron powder off the rusty nail and pour it directly into the hydroponic bottle to supplement the iron element for the lucky bamboo.

That’s all for today’s introduction to Huahua!
