Can Saxifraga be hydroponically cultured

Saxifraga likes humid environment. Purple stolons can grow at the base. It is a very suitable plant for hydroponic culture. Placed on the balcony or living room, or hung on the wall, are very unique and novel home decorations

Saxifraga likes dampness and is resistant to barrenness. It is especially suitable to be raised indoors with clear water

Hydroponic culture method of Saxifraga

Plant selection

Spring and autumn is the growth period of Saxifraga. Select 1 or 2 Robust Saxifraga seedlings, wash the soil at the root and set aside

Specific operation

Put transparent glass containers into stones to fix plants and decorations. Then inject clean water. Put in Saxifraga, and keep the water below the rhizome of Saxifraga

Hydroponic maintenance skills of Saxifraga

Moisture

Add water in time when the water level is low, and change the water in time when the water is turbid. Usually change it once every 10 days or so. The root system is easy to rot in high temperature, so the water should be changed frequently. At the same time, pay attention to cleaning the container and keep it clean. When the air is dry, it can spray around the plant and increase the humidity to facilitate plant growth. In case of leaf wilting, it shall be removed in time

Illumination

Saxifraga can reflect the beauty of its leaves only if it is cultured in a semi shady environment. Saxifraga is difficult to survive in direct sunlight all day. If the light is too strong, the leaves will be burned. If the light is too weak, the color of the leaves will be dim and not fresh enough. Appropriate shading treatment should be carried out in spring, summer and autumn, and light conservation can be carried out with brighter scattered light

Precautions for hydroponic culture of Saxifraga

Rotten root

All hydroponic plants need to pay attention to things, of course, Saxifraga can not be spared. Part of the plant is soaked in water, which is of course prone to decay and other phenomena

After the root system decays, the decaying parts shall be cut off in time, and the water shall be changed for hydroponics after drying

Yellow leaves

Too much water will affect the respiration of plants, and the leaves are easy to turn yellow and wilt, because more water, less oxygen

Therefore, it is necessary to clean the container wall every time to reduce the growth of microorganisms. There are many microorganisms and consume more oxygen, competing with the plant

If the leaves turn yellow, they should be removed in time. At the same time, pay attention to the inspection of insect pests and diseases and spray medicine in time
