How to make hydroponic flowers (methods of hydroponic flower cultivation)
1. Methods of hydroponic flower cultivation
1. Preparation
When growing a bouquet of flowers in water, first prepare a vase that matches the size of the bouquet, and then prepare clean water. It is best to use purified water or mineral water to reduce the harm of bacteria. Note that tap water needs to be left to stand for 3 days before using it after the chlorine in the water evaporates.
2. Pruning branches
Unpack the purchased bouquet, trim the rotten leaves and damaged petals on the branches, remove the leaves at the bottom, and finally cut the bottom of the branches diagonally to increase the absorption area of the branches and enhance the activity of the flowers.
3. Insert the needle into water
Place the processed flower branches directly into the prepared vase, maintain the water level in the vase at 1/2, then add 2-3 drops of nutrient solution to the water, and place the vase in a cool and ventilated place to avoid direct sunlight, which will cause the flowers to wither prematurely.
4. Post-maintenance
In the process of growing bouquets in water, in order to prolong the shelf life of the flowers, preservatives can be added to the water before the flowers bloom to ensure that the flowers are in an incompletely blooming state for a long time, thereby prolonging the flowering period. During the maintenance period, it is necessary to change the water for the bouquets every day to increase the oxygen content in the water.
2. How to grow hydroponic flowers
The hydroponic method of Hoya is relatively easy to operate. First, take the Hoya out of the soil, clean the dirt on its surface, cut off the necrotic roots and soak it in flower diluent for about half a day, then put the soaked Hoya into a vase, add clean water and nutrient solution, and place it in a cool and ventilated place for maintenance.

How to hydroponically cultivate Hoya?
There are various ways to propagate Hoya, but few people know how to grow it hydroponically. If you want to grow it hydroponically, you must first take it out of the soil, clean the dirt on its surface, check its roots, cut off the rotten and necrotic roots, and then place it in the nutrient solution used to dilute the flower roots for half a day.
During the soaking process, you can prepare a transparent vase, put some beautiful stones at the bottom of the vase, and then put the soaked Hoya into the vase, allowing its roots to fully expand. After inserting it, add clean water into it. The water level should just cover the roots of the Hoya, and finally add an appropriate amount of nutrient solution.
How to hydroponically cultivate Hoya?
After planting, you must pay attention to maintenance to keep the Hoya orchid alive. First, you need to spray the leaves of the Hoya orchid with clean water every day. At the same time, you need to change the water about every 15 days. After changing the water, you need to add nutrient solution again. About once a month, inject the flower nutrient solution into the head of the Hoya orchid. This will promote its growth and increase the chance of flowering.
To cultivate the ball orchid in water, you need to place it in a cool and ventilated place and avoid direct sunlight. If you adhere to the correct maintenance method and maintain it for about three months, it will bloom. If you prune it in time when the flower withers and keep up with the nutrition, it can bloom a second time. In general, hydroponic ball orchid is relatively simple.
3. Flower hydroponics
① Hydroponic propagation: First, select healthy, disease-free leaf branches. Then, cut off the leaf branches of the alum root and dry the cut part. Finally, place the alum root leaves as cuttings into clean water. Theoretically, it takes about 15 to 20 days for the alum root to take root when propagated hydroponically.
② Hydroponic cultivation: When alum root is transferred from soil cultivation to hydroponic cultivation, it is necessary to first remove the alum root from the pot, clean the root system, cut off the rotten or old root parts, and place it in a cool place to dry; then, pour clean water into a watertight container and add a small amount of nutrient solution; then place the alum root in the container filled with water, try to keep 1/3 of the roots exposed outside to ensure the breathing of the roots; finally, fix the alum root in the container.
4. Home hydroponic flowers
Hydroponic plants are actually soilless plants that are cultivated and grown directly in nutrient solution. They are mainly used for ornamental and vegetable cultivation. Home hydroponic plants are mainly used for ornamental purposes. So what are home hydroponic plants? A detailed introduction to the complete list of hydroponic plant species will analyze all home hydroponic plants for you. In theory, except for plants that are afraid of moisture, other small potted plants can be made into home hydroponic plants.
Home hydroponic plants are mainly used for viewing and are divided into two categories:
1. One type is floating hydroponic plants, such as lotus, lotus, arrowhead, etc.;
2. The other type is submerged hydroponic plants, such as duckweed, bladderwort, foxtail algae, etc.
Theoretically, except for plants that are afraid of moisture, all other plants can be made into hydroponic plants, so there are many varieties of hydroponic plants. Currently, there are two main types of hydroponic plants, namely vegetables and ornamental plants. Plants are divided into families, and according to this classification method, hydroponic plants can be divided into the following categories.
1. Crassulaceae plants: such as lotus palm, hibiscus palm, silver wave brocade, gem flower, ground root, etc.;
2. Liliaceae: Except for the bottle orchid which is not easy to be hydroponically cultivated, almost all flowers of the lily family can adapt to hydroponic conditions, such as aloe, haworthia, spider plants, dracaena, dracaena, tiger tail orchid, agave, etc.
3. Commelinaceae plants: These flowers are highly adaptable and have a natural instinct for hydroponics. Almost all Commelinaceae flowers can adapt to hydroponics conditions, such as purple-leaved Commelinaceae, purple-backed Dieffenbachia, and hanging bamboo plum.
4. Araceae plants: mainly black beauty, green ground yellow, ruby, emerald, green Luo, Daifenye, etc.;
5. Other plants: Cyperus, Cyperus, Ficus microcarpa, Pinus ovata, Begonia, Leopardus leucophylla, Blood of June, Parthenocissus tricuspidata, etc. are all suitable as hydroponic plants.
5. Cultivation methods of hydroponic flowers
1. Remove from the basin
First, take the soil-grown golden diamond out of the flowerpot, remove the soil and rotten roots, and rinse it clean. In this process, be careful not to damage the root system of the golden diamond, so as not to affect the normal growth of the golden diamond.
2. Disinfection
Soak the roots of the golden diamond in prepared potassium permanganate and disinfect it for thirty minutes, then clean the stones and planting baskets.
3. Planting
Place the roots of the golden diamond in a planting basket, then add stones to fix it, and finally place it in a hydroponic container filled with culture solution. The roots of the golden diamond should be submerged 1/2-2/3 in the solution, leaving a part in contact with the air. This way, the hydroponic golden diamond is ready.
4. Change water frequently
In the early stage of hydroponics, you should pay more attention to changing the water. At the beginning, the soil is still black and the roots will turn black easily. Later, water roots will slowly grow and the water will gradually become clear. At this time, you can change the water every one or two months, and just replenish it after the water volume decreases.
5. Water temperature requirements
You can choose purified water or tap water to cultivate golden diamonds, but you need to pay attention to the cold weather, the water temperature is lower than the room temperature, and the tap water should be left for a period of time before use to keep the root temperature stable. Or when changing the water, use the half-water method, pour out half of the water in the original bottle, add half of new water, and control the water temperature to be constant.
6. Water volume control in container
There should not be too much water in the container, the bottom roots should be 2/3 in the water, and some roots should be kept in the air. Use planting basket hydroponics, and it is better to keep the planting basket away from water.
7. Fertilization
After hydroponics, you can apply some liquid fertilizer or add nutrient particles to the water to allow them to slowly melt and release nutrients, which is both beautiful and can ensure the nutrients needed by the plants.
8. Hydroponic environment requirements
Golden Diamond likes a warm and humid environment, is afraid of severe cold and strong light. The hydroponic Golden Diamond should be placed in a well-ventilated semi-shaded environment or a bright place without direct sunlight to prevent the leaves of the Golden Diamond from turning yellow.
The growth temperature of golden diamond should not be too low. The suitable temperature for growth is 20℃ ~ 30℃. The environmental humidity required for the survival of golden diamond should be guaranteed. When the weather is dry, you can spray water on the leaves or on the ground to increase the environmental humidity.
6. Methods and techniques for hydroponic flower cultivation
1/Potting soil: Alstroemeria prefers fertile acidic sandy soil with good permeability. You can mix leaf mold or peat soil with garden soil and coarse sand.
2/Light: Alstroemeria likes sunlight. Insufficient light may affect the growth and flowering of the flower. Sufficient light is needed during the growing period. At the same time, when the sunlight is too strong in summer, it needs to be shaded.
3/Temperature: The most suitable growth temperature for Alstroemeria is between 15-25 degrees. It likes warmth and is not cold-resistant. It can safely survive the winter if the temperature is kept above 10 degrees. When the temperature is too high in summer, it needs shade, otherwise it is easy to hibernate. It is necessary to increase ventilation and sprinkle water on the leaves to cool it down.
4/Fertilization: Alstroemeria needs nitrogen fertilizer during the growing period to promote the growth of its plants, and potassium fertilizer should be applied during the flowering period. At the same time, the number of fertilization should be reduced when the temperature is high.
5/Watering: Alstroemeria likes a humid growing environment and needs sufficient water during the growing season in spring and summer. It will enter a dormant state when the temperature is low in winter. It is necessary to control the moisture, reduce the number of waterings, and keep it dry.
6/Pruning: Alstroemeria needs to be pruned during the non-flowering period. The leaves need to be thinned out, and small leaf buds removed, while some thick flower buds are retained. This will make the plant shorter and have more flowers.
Precautions
Tips: When watering the Alstroemeria, be sure to water it thoroughly at one time and avoid any accumulation of water.
7. Common hydroponic flowers
There are many indoor plants that are suitable for water cultivation. These plants, such as green ivy, pennywort, and spider plant, not only have beautiful leaves, but are also easy to maintain.
Hyacinthus and Spathiphyllum can bloom, and their flowers are graceful. You don’t need to spend too much energy on their care. You can buy a few and keep them at home, and remember to change the water regularly.
8. How to grow hydroponic plants
Hydroponic bottling and maintenance knowledge
1. Scientific placement is required: Most hydroponic flowers are decorative plants for indoor beautification and greening. Among factors such as temperature, light, and heat, light often has the greatest impact on their growth. It is a dual contradictory factor that both promotes and inhibits hydroponic flowers. The indoor environment is often in an insufficient light environment. In addition to shade-loving plants that have strong shade tolerance, such as Araceae, which are suitable for indoor cultivation, many other flowering and fruiting plants often require more sufficient light. If they are placed in a weak light environment for a long time, yellow leaves and weak growth will appear. Therefore, this kind of plant needs to be placed in a bright place in front of a window with diffuse light.
For example, water-cultured kumquats, peaches, and four-season fruits, as well as roses and hydrangeas, also require strong light. However, water-cultured flowers are different from soil-cultured flowers. They cannot have direct light irradiating their roots, otherwise the roots will be inhibited or photo-oxidation and injury will occur, causing the roots to turn black, and serious rot and loss of activity. 2. Change the water regularly. We found that the root secretions of plants grown in a small space cannot be adsorbed and fixed like soil, and will not be diluted like large water body hydroponics and flowing water hydroponics. If the water is not changed for a long time, these substances will react on the root system, causing the root system to become poisoned or bacteria to breed, and serious root rot will occur. By changing the water and injecting clean and fresh water, the root environment can be optimized and purified, and the dissolved oxygen in the water can be increased, which is more conducive to growth. At the same time, some roots that are too long, black and aging, and rotten roots can be trimmed once, which is conducive to stimulating the growth of the root system and growing more white new roots. 3. Pest and disease control: Although there are few pests and diseases indoors, sometimes the environment may cause leaf spot disease and spider mites on some plants. Of course, chemical pesticides cannot be used for control in the home maintenance environment. You can use some easily available products at home, such as washing powder, chili water, garlic juice, etc. to prevent spider mites, acetic acid or household photocatalyst self-cleaning agent can inhibit bacteria, and beer liquid can be used to spray leaves to strengthen seedlings. This will make the branches and leaves dark green, sterile and insect-free, and enhance the beauty.
9. How to hydroponically grow soil-grown flowers?
Can.
1. Prepare the soil. When the roots grown by hydroponics grow to 3-4 cm, you can switch to soil culture. At this time, the roots grow steadily and are easy to survive and grow after transplanting. Before switching to soil culture, you must first prepare the soil. Make sure the soil is loose and breathable, otherwise the roots will not be able to adapt. You can use nutrient soil or prepare the soil yourself. You can mix garden soil, leaf mold, sandy soil, and perlite to ensure good drainage.
2. Prepare flower pots Prepare flower pots of appropriate size. The flower pots should not be too large. The material of the flower pots should be transparent and have holes at the bottom for drainage. The flower pots should be cleaned in advance and placed in the sun to dry.
3. Processing of branches: If there are rotten roots on the branches, they need to be pruned before transferring to soil cultivation, and the yellow and dead leaves also need to be removed.
4. Planting in a pot: Place a layer of tiles at the bottom of the pot, add a layer of soil, place the rooted branches in the center of the pot, and pay attention that the roots at the bottom should not stick to the bottom of the pot. Gradually fill the pot with soil and gently cover the roots. During the filling period, gently lift the seedlings, cover the soil and gently press it so that the roots can be closely combined with the soil. After planting, pour in an appropriate amount of water and place in a cool and ventilated place for seedling acclimatization. After the seedling acclimatization is over, you can gradually expose it to light and keep it exposed to scattered light.
10. What are the methods of hydroponic flower cultivation?
In order to make the hydroponic plants grow healthily, you can add nutrient solution to the water every week. It needs to be diluted with clean water before use. Just add 2-3 drops per week. If the plant is relatively large, you can add more appropriately. You can also add white sugar, which can effectively promote the rooting of the plant. Add it once a month.
For some hydroponic plants, you can also add rusty iron nails to the water to supplement sufficient iron ions. For example, this can prevent yellowing leaves of lucky bamboo.
11. Cultivation and care methods of hydroponic flowers
For hydroponic flowers, wash the roots first and let the new cuts dry. Leave the water for two days before use, then put the flowers in.
