How do you grow lucky bamboo so it roots quickly?
1. Remove the leaves
Before you start planting, remove the excess leaves from the base of the plant, and cut a small slanted notch at the base, so that the base of the plant makes contact with the water surface to the greatest extent possible. Also keep the cut neat and smooth, so that it can more easily take in nutrients and root faster.
2. Reduce the frequency of water changes
After completing the basic steps of water culture, give it a period of buffer time so it can better adapt to the environment, so at this point it is best not to move it, and not to change the water often; you can change the water only when evaporation causes the water level to drop. Changing the water too often easily causes malnutrition in the leaves.
3. Choosing fertilizer
Once the plant has just started to root, add a small amount of compound fertilizer, and the leaves will become glossy, the stems thick and strong, and the growth will be good. But if you do not fertilize, the plant's growth will not look promising. However, when fertilizing you must not overdo it, otherwise root burn will occur, or the stems will grow long and white, which is not attractive.
4. Choosing the environment
Generally choose a spot with good light, and also maintain suitable temperature and humidity. Note that this plant dislikes drafts, so do not place it next to air conditioners, televisions, fans and other electrical appliances, to avoid the leaves turning yellow.
5. Pest and disease control
If you want the plant to grow well, you still need to prevent pests in good time; you can also spray medicine both inside and out, using plant growth regulators such as Xinzhisu or Pen Shibao to prevent problems, so as to promote balanced growth, lush leaves and thick stems, and maintain good growth. /p>
