Cultivation methods and precautions of hydroponic copper coin grass

The pennywort is native to Europe and is a beautiful green foliage plant. It can be planted in pots or cultivated in water. Its leaves are evergreen all year round and have a high ornamental value. Although it may seem simple to cultivate pennywort in water, it has certain requirements and some precautions. If you do not master these basic knowledge, it is difficult to cultivate pennywort in water. The following is my comprehensive introduction to its cultivation methods and precautions. If you like pennywort, you can focus on it.

1. Water quality requirements

When growing pennywort hydroponically, the choice of water quality is very important. It has strong vitality and can be grown directly with tap water, but tap water cannot be used directly. It needs to be placed in a pot to dry, and then put in a vase after 2 to 3 days. In addition, the water should be changed frequently when growing pennywort hydroponically, especially in summer. The water should be changed every 3 to 4 days and the water position should be at 1/2 of the vase. In winter, the number of water changes can be reduced, and the water can be changed once every week.

2. Moderate sunlight

The pennywort is a foliage plant that likes sunlight. When cultivating the pennywort in water, it is also necessary to allow it to absorb sufficient sunlight. Normally, the pennywort can be placed in an environment where it can be exposed to sunlight for 4 to 5 hours every day. If the sunlight is weak in winter, fluorescent lamps or ultraviolet lamps can be used instead of sunlight. The pennywort must also receive sunlight for a certain period of time every day. Only in this way can its leaves remain green and grow vigorously.

3. Breeding temperature

The copper coin grass is a green leafy plant that likes a warm environment. When it is cultivated in water, the temperature of the cultivation environment should be maintained. It is best to place it in an environment of 10 to 26 degrees. Too high or too low a temperature is not suitable for the growth of the copper coin grass. In addition, when cultivating the copper coin grass in water, it is not necessary to fertilize it frequently. Usually, a small amount of nutrient solution can be added to it every 15 days, but the amount should not be too much, otherwise the leaves of the copper coin grass will turn yellow or the roots will rot.
