Hydrangea flowers are plump, large, and beautiful, their flower color can be red and blue, pleasant to the eyes, and is a common potted ornamental flower.

In addition to the common potted form, hydrangeas can also be grown hydroponically. Hydrangeas can absorb minerals in water to produce roots and sprouts, so as long as they are properly maintained, hydroponics is no problem.

Hydroponics is a type of soilless cultivation in plants, where the plants survive in water without soil.

Ball flower hydroponics can be carried out from June to July, cuttings of the weather temperature are best at about 3 to 18 ℃ and need to be well-ventilated without light conditions for cuttings, the whole hydroponic cuttings method is not very complicated.

So if hydrangeas are grown hydroponically, what are the things that need attention?

The hydroponic environment requires the plant's root system can be applied to the water, in the hydroponic environment most of the root system will become more slender and dense, so during the maintenance to pay attention to the method, the proper method of hydroponics will grow very well, and more clean and beautiful than the soil cultivation.

Hydroponics hydrangea nutrients should be more balanced. During the maintenance period, a special nutrient solution to meet its needs for nutrients, while hydroponic containers should have a certain oxygen content, to meet the needs of the root system, to grow more robust. If you can meet these two conditions hydroponics will not be a problem.

1. Build a water base

Hydrangea hydroponic culture should pay special attention to the plant's water base structure, the plant root system is fine, and its hydroponic water base should be breathable, and conducive to drainage. Therefore, it is better to choose a mixture of cinder and river sand to meet the growing demand for the plant.

2. Add nutrient solution

When hydroponic hydrangea, the addition of nutrient solution can not be too much or too little and should be added according to the specific circumstances of the plant, usually normal addition is fine. But in the flowering and developmental period of the plant, you need to increase the amount of nutrient solution and reduce the amount after the plant blooms.

3. Regular water change

Hydrangea roots are very sensitive, so you need to change the water in time, preferably every two days. Water for hydroponics can't be used directly from tap water, it's better to use dried tap water because there are not too many bacteria in this kind of water, which is good for the growth of plants.

Hydrangea every few days to change the water needs to be adjusted according to the season, usually every other day in the summer need to change water, high-temperature water is easy to breed bacteria, other seasons 1 to 2 days to change the water once can.

Hydroponics hydrangea should pay attention to frequent water changes, not only to ensure that the water is clean, and oxygen content will also improve, help to root, but after rooting need to reduce the number of water changes, do not hurt the root system, in addition, hydroponics hydrangea need to shade and avoid wind, otherwise the plant is easy to wither.
