Can the rubber tree be grown hydroponically?

Nutrient solution

If you want to carry out hydroponics of the rubber tree, nutrient solution is very important. It is recommended to prepare an acidic nutrient solution containing nitrate nitrogen. After the rubber tree is planted, use the diluted nutrient solution immediately. Water the nutrient solution thoroughly. If you can see the seeping nutrient solution at the bottom of the pot, it means it is watered thoroughly. In addition, it is recommended that you spray some potassium dihydrogen phosphate aqueous solution on the leaves of the seedlings to help the growth of the seedlings. In addition, it is also important to replenish nutrient solution and water in time to prevent excessive salt content in the substrate. When white frost appears on the surface of expanded clay, it is recommended to clean the salt in the cultivation substrate.

illumination

The newly planted seedlings should be placed in a darker place to allow them to grow slowly. After the seedlings have grown normally, they can be moved to a place with sufficient light. In addition, the rubber tree likes sunlight. Except for summer, it can maintain sufficient light in other seasons. In summer, preparations for shade should be made to prevent the rubber tree from being exposed to direct sunlight. In winter, more attention should be paid to sufficient light. In addition, the rubber tree likes warmth. In winter, the room temperature should be kept above 10 degrees Celsius, so that the rubber tree can grow better and spend the winter safely.

Moisture

When the indoor air is too dry, the leaves of the rubber tree will curl. When this phenomenon occurs, you can choose to spray water around or place a basin of water to increase the air humidity. In addition, when the plant is too tall, the top of the trunk should be trimmed in time so that new branches can sprout, which is more suitable for the appearance of the rubber tree and easier for people to appreciate.
