1、 Can roots be trimmed

Its root system can be pruned, especially for hydroponics, long-term hydroponics maintenance leads to disordered root growth and increased number, which not only affects the beauty, but also makes the water absorption function poor. Pruning will improve the transportation function and absorb more nutrients from the water, but pay attention not to prune too much, otherwise it will affect the normal growth

If the root rots, it must be pruned. If the rotten root is allowed to soak in water, it will only become more and more serious and even lead to plant death

2、 Pruning method

1. Take the plant out of the water and then wash it in clean water to reduce the sticky root
