Can lotus be grown indoors?

Can lotus be grown indoors?

1. Reasons

The lotus we usually see grows in large ponds, but it can not only grow in such an environment, but can also be cultivated as a potted plant indoors. It has strong adaptability and can grow even in a very small pot. Growing lotus at home symbolizes family harmony.

2. Breeding methods

1. Planting: Choose a shallow tank with a diameter of more than 60cm, and put pond mud or rice field mud rich in humus into the pot with a thickness of 10-15cm.

2. Water depth: Do not put too much water in the breeding basin in the early stage, maintain a water depth of 3-5cm. Shallow water can increase the temperature of the mud in the basin and promote the increase of air temperature in the basin. When the floating leaves are out of water, the water depth can be increased to maintain it at about 16cm. Rehydrate yourself every morning to prevent dehydration.

3. Light: It likes strong light exposure and should be placed in a well-lit and ventilated place such as a courtyard or balcony. Be careful not to let strong winds blow and avoid exposure to strong sunlight in the afternoon.

3. Dormancy: After it enters the dormant period, there is no need to add water frequently, just keep the water shallow. After the leaves turn yellow in October, they must be moved indoors to overwinter.
