How to use crystal mud to raise flowers, how to use crystal mud to grow aquatic plants

Crystal mud is suitable for planting shade-loving, moisture-loving, and water-adaptable plants, such as climbing vine evergreen, rich bamboo, Phnom Penh rich bamboo, silver edge rich bamboo, pocket coconut, Brazilian iron, Phnom Penh spider plant, tiger back, pothos, sun god, fruit plant, dai powder evergreen, purple leaf duck tongue grass, heart leaf philistin, color bamboo, golden finger, anthurium, money tree and other shade indoor furnishings of plants or hydroponic plants.

Some ways to improve the survival rate of crystal mud flowers.

1. Particle size of mud: smaller particles are conducive to the growth of roots and can reduce the pressure of roots; Larger particles are aesthetically pleasing, and fade and channel color slowly. If the plant grows well, the roots can penetrate large chunks of crystal mud.

2. Soaking mud: according to different plant habits, different soaking mud multiples, for example, the sedge that likes water should be soaked enough; The spider plant is slightly smaller, about 25-30 times (the mud multiple with small water absorption is even smaller).

The above two items are for some large pieces of crystal clay blanks.

3. Water for soaking mud: because tap water contains a large amount of chlorine, which is not conducive to the growth of plants, so when soaking mud with tap water, the tap water should be placed in a flared container for more than two days; Cool boiled water is the most conducive to plant absorption; Mineral water contains a lot of minerals that can meet the plant's needs for trace elements, so it is best to use the latter two types of mud.

Fourth, water-raised plants: when raising plants with water, the water should be changed every 1-2 days, which is conducive to the plant to adapt to the environment and grow new roots, in the process of changing the water when it is found that there are rotten roots, it should be cut in time with sharp shears (with sharp shears can reduce the damage to the roots of the plant).

5. Environment: The growth of each plant must have a suitable environment, because more than 90% of the crystal mud is water, so the plants planted in the crystal mud can adapt to the minimum temperature higher than in the clay pot. And be sure to pay attention to ventilation, to ventilate is not to put the plants in a place where the wind blows, but to ensure the flow of air.

If the ventilation is not good, root rot will appear.

Some flower friends don't know how to use crystal flower mud, in fact, it is very simple, put it in a container and soak it in water, it can be used, it takes about 30 minutes to soak, of course, it is better to take a longer time, so as to ensure that you can absorb enough rolling water, and then drain the water, you can use it in hydroponic utensils, it's as simple as that.

Of course, the above is just how to use it, we might as well take a deeper look at the crystal clay.

The crystal flower mud itself does not contain the nutrients required by the plant, it is just a decoration + water retention thing, which is similar to the effect of making a sponge to fix hydroponic plants, but it is better than a sponge.

This crystal clay is not all advantages, there are also some disadvantages, such as after a while, it is not as bright as it was at the beginning, but it may become a little dirty.

In addition, the crystal clay is soaked in water absorption, after the initial water is evaporated and absorbed, it is reduced to colloidal, often the upper layer of the clay in the air has shrunk, the lower layer of the clay is still full, and the ornamental effect has decreased significantly. At this time, you need to pour out the surface layer of flower mud, soak it in water for 30 minutes, and then drain it for half an hour.

There is also the crystal flower auspicious mud is not breathable, and the plant is prone to lack oxygen and rot the roots when there is more water. With the growth of time, the crystal clay gradually becomes turbid, and the multi-colored crystal clay will also appear to be prepared for empty "crossing".

Is it okay to make a big crystal clay for the first time? Do I have to fall into the water again? The crystal mud is so quick to suck up the water

After that, it grew again.

The plant sucks up to the water shelf.

Crystal mud sucks up water.

I'm going to fall into the water again.

Mi Mi fell many times a day.

Actually, tie the point? When the crystal mud dries, add water again, and change the water.

Change? Every 15 days, rinse the roots of the plant with clean water to keep the plant and crystal mud clean. The nutrient water is falling.

Can you just drop it down? It already has the nutrients needed to support plant growth and does not need to be fertilized for a year. Detailed usage method to 1:

Soak the crystal mud in 50-60 times water for 12-14 hours, swell and drain the excess water, and then use. If you want to mix with multiple colors, soak the colors separately and then drain the excess water and combine them in layers. Pour the expanded crystal clay into a transparent glass vase, retain a little water at the bottom of the pot, and wash away the dirt from the roots of the plants; Prune decaying roots and leaves, preferably to cover the plant's root system completely.

After planting flowers for a few months, the surface layer of crystal clay will shrink, and you can choose to re-soak the shrunken crystal clay and reuse. Since ultraviolet rays have a certain effect on color, it is recommended to plant indoors and in a dark environment. For a year, you can spray a little water on the foliage of the plant, and the effect is better with its crystal mud.

Precautions: Keep the product at room temperature and moist conditions. If the growing plant needs plenty of sunlight, cover it with crystal mud with a dark cloth to prevent it from drying out.

Do not pour the product down the drain. Warning: This product is not edible, please keep out of reach of children and do not swallow.

Other ways to use crystal mud: Cuttings: Prune water-loving plants, clean them, insert them directly into a vase with crystal mud (preferably at the mouth of the bottle), pour a small amount of water, and the plants will automatically take root after a period of time.

Flower arrangement: Insert fresh-cut flowers directly into a vase filled with crystal clay and pour a small amount of water. Longer storage time is possible.

Soil cultivation: Crystal clay is added to the soil of the vase or seedling and mixed with the soil or culture medium to be planted. It retains water and nutrients in the soil and repeatedly absorbs and releases water, reducing the need for watering and fertilization.

When using dried flowers and silk flowers, wrap the branches with transparent cellophane. Because the dried flowers are made by dehydration, the moisture in the flower mud will cause the branches to absorb water and mildew over time, and most of the silk flowers are made of colored paper wrapped in iron wire, so it is necessary to avoid the rust of the iron wire and polluting the flower mud after the paper absorbs water.
