Can green radish be grown with rice water? How to water it correctly?

1. Can I use rice water to grow it?

Yes, rice water contains a large amount of mineral nutrients, which are necessary for the growth and development of these plants. However, it is not recommended to use rice water directly for watering. It must be fermented and matured before use, because rice water containing a large amount of sugar can easily breed maggots, which will cause root rot and necrosis of the plants.

2. How to water correctly

1. The rice water used for watering this type of plants should be fermented. Put it in a container and seal it. After about 7 days in summer, the fermentation time can be increased in other seasons and extended to about 15 days. When the water turns yellow-black, the smell becomes foul, and there is no white starch at the bottom of the bottle, it means it has been fermented and can be used.

2. It needs to be diluted when using, and it is best to mix it thoroughly with clean water in a ratio of about 1:1. This is because the fermented rice water becomes a fertilizer. Using it directly will cause seedlings and roots to burn, and instead cause the plants to rot.

3. When watering, you need to inject water from the roots. Be careful not to touch the surface of the leaves, otherwise it will burn the leaves of the plant and cause them to rot, affecting the appearance and integrity of the leaves.

4. If the fermented rice water produces an odor, you can pick a few pieces of orange peel, tear them into pieces and throw them in. The odor can be effectively removed in about an hour.
