The hydroponic spider plant and lucky bamboo grew wildly after being transferred to soil cultivation

1. Steps for converting Chlorophytum hydroponics to soil cultivation

Take out the hydroponic spider plant and trim the roots. In addition to cutting off rotten roots and old roots, also cut off roots that are too long. After cutting, soak the flowers in some carbendazim, and then place them in a cool and ventilated place to dry for 3-4 hours. If you don’t have carbendazim, you don’t have to use it, and just dry the roots directly.

Prepare nutrient soil with the following ratio: leaf mold: perlite: sand = 3:1:1. If there is no nutrient soil, you can use garden soil and mix it with some sand.

Plant the trimmed spider plant in a flowerpot, water it thoroughly, and then place it in a cool and ventilated place for half a month. Do not expose it to strong sunlight.

After half a month, the spider plant can be slowly exposed to the sun and watered normally. Make sure to water it after the surface soil is dry. Water it until the water flows to the bottom of the pot.

2. Steps to switch from hydroponics to soil cultivation

It is best to switch from hydroponics to soil culture when the temperature is around 20 degrees in spring and autumn. In summer, the weather is too hot and the roots are prone to rot, and in winter, it is too cold to take root after switching to soil culture.

Take out the hydroponic green radish, clean and trim the roots, then put it in a solution of carbendazim to kill bacteria, and then put it in a ventilated and cool place to dry for half an hour.

The roots of green ivy are prone to root rot, so when preparing the soil, pay attention to air permeability and water permeability. You can use garden soil: leaf mold: perlite (sand) = 2:1:1.

Put a layer of expanded clay at the bottom of the flowerpot, then a layer of soil, and then plant the trimmed green ivy in it. While filling the soil, shake the flowerpot slightly to ensure that the soil is firm and in full contact with the roots.

After planting, water thoroughly, cover with a transparent plastic bag (no need to cover in summer), and place in a cool and ventilated place for 1-2 weeks.

If the root system grows normally, you can slowly apply fertilizer after about 1 month. Huahua usually dissolves granular slow-release fertilizer in a kettle, and then uses the water in the kettle to water the green radish, or spray it on the leaves. Of course, just put a few grains, not too many.

3. Steps to convert lucky bamboo from hydroponics to soil cultivation

The soil for lucky bamboo should be permeable, and sandy soil or semi-silt is most suitable. It can be prepared with garden soil: sand in a ratio of 1:1.

After drying, plant the lucky bamboo directly in a flowerpot. The flowerpot should not be too big or too deep, otherwise water will accumulate. After planting, place the lucky bamboo in a cool and ventilated place for about 1-2 weeks, and then slowly expose it to the sun.

Lucky bamboo is afraid of dryness, so water it every 2-3 days to keep the soil in the pot moist, but without water accumulation.

In addition, Huahua strongly recommends that everyone plant lucky bamboo using the half soil and half water method. The lower half is soil, and the upper half is water. This not only ensures nutrition, but also does not lack water. The root system is very strong. See the picture of "Add a Line" by flower friend.
