How to grow hydroponic plants

1. Water level

When hydroponically caring for the plants, the entire plant should not be immersed in water. Instead, the roots should be placed in a ratio of 7:3 or 6:4, with a portion placed in water and a small portion left outside the air. This way, the plants can absorb oxygen. Otherwise, they will die from lack of oxygen.

2. Fixed value

Fixing the root system means putting silt or pebbles in the water to fix the roots. Be sure to wash them clean before placing them. However, some plants do not need constant value and can grow well in water.

3. Nutrient solution

Nutrient solution is equivalent to fertilizer during soil cultivation and is an indispensable source of nutrients for hydroponic plants. It is generally sold in flower shops. It should be added according to the instructions and not in excess, otherwise it will affect the growth of the plant.

4. Lighting

Plants grown in hydroponics usually prefer scattered light, so they can be placed on indoor windowsills. When the light is strong, they should be shielded and try to avoid strong light.

5. Change the water

The water quality of hydroponic culture is very important and determines whether the plant grows vigorously. The water should be changed frequently during management, otherwise it will easily breed bacteria and affect growth. If you are using tap water, it is best to let it dry for two days before adding more water.
