Grow pennywort this way for big, green leaves that fill a whole tank

Pennywort's round leaves are very cute. As a small potted plant on an office desk, it adds a bit of fun during a tedious workday. Let's look at how to care for pennywort!

How do you grow pennywort?

(1). Pennywort needs a warm environment and 80% light all day. Insufficient light causes the stems to grow leggy and the leaves to turn yellow and rot. The soil needs a medium with strong water retention that can stay moist.

(2). When planting pennywort, it can be planted flat; it is best if the rhizomes are not visible after planting, and the roots should not be too deep.

(3). Yellowing leaves, especially new leaves, are a sign of insufficient nutrients. You can spray the leaves with a compound fertilizer based mainly on nitrogen.

(4). If you find water moss on the roots of hydroponic pennywort, change the water immediately and clean the container at the same time.

(5). If the potting soil is too wet or too dry for a long time, or if you do not water as soon as the soil dries, yellow leaves will appear.

(6). Pennywort normally does not need heavy pruning. If the leaves are too dense, remove them promptly, and promptly clean up old and diseased leaves by hand. Proper pruning can improve the light and ventilation environment. If the plant grows too tall, prune it to a suitable height to encourage new shoots to sprout.
