How to grow copper coin grass in water so it bursts into a full pot? The latest cultivation method is here

Copper coin grass (Hydrocotyle vulgaris) is a perennial creeping herbaceous plant, also known as broken copper coin grass and money grass (Lysimachia nummularia). It has very good ornamental value and can be grown in soil or in water; with proper care it can quickly fill a pot. So how do you grow copper coin grass in water so it bursts into a full pot? Below, the editor will introduce the water-culture method for making copper coin grass burst into a full pot.

1. A suitable container

First of all, when choosing a container, you must pay attention: in order to grow it into a full pot, you must provide it with ample space. There are no specific requirements for the material of the container; either glass or porcelain will do.

2. Changing the water and water quality

You need to change the water regularly, which can provide the necessary conditions for it to burst into a full pot, but when changing the water you must pay attention to the water quality. It is best to use neutral or slightly acidic water, and the pH should be controlled between 6-7. In addition, the water temperature should also be noted, and between 10-20 degrees is quite suitable; the specific temperature should vary according to room temperature. It is best to use spring water, well water, and so on. If it is tap water, it is best to let it stand for 24 hours before use, because tap water often retains a lot of disinfecting substances, which is extremely unfavorable to the growth of copper coin grass, and sometimes may even cause its leaves to turn yellow or even wither.

3. Temperature and light

The optimal growth temperature for copper coin grass is between 15-25 degrees. In summer, when it is above 35 degrees, its growth will slow down. If it is placed in the sun to grow, the water temperature may become too high and cause dry, wilted water. Therefore, in the high-temperature season, pay attention to shading or keep it indoors. In addition, if the winter temperature is too low, copper coin grass may freeze to death, and this is caused by the water temperature being too low, so in winter it is best to overwinter it in an environment of around 10 degrees. Sufficient scattered light can also help it grow quickly and burst into a full pot. If the growing environment is too dark, the growth of copper coin grass will slow down, and it will also cause green algae to multiply too quickly. Conversely, in summer, too strong light will cause the leaves to burn, and plant growth will be affected, so a scattered-light environment is most suitable.

4. Sufficient nutrients

To grow copper coin grass and make it burst into a full pot quickly, it needs sufficient nutrients. We can use organic fertilizer liquid and add just 3-5 drops after each water change. When fertilizing, it is best to use cooled boiled water, as this can reduce the bacterial environment for green algae growth and can prevent green algae from appearing too early.
