Hydroponic plants are plants whose roots are placed in water for growth and can be grown in any container, such as glass jars, vases, porcelain bowls, etc.


Hydroponic plants do not need soil. The roots of hydroponic plants are directly exposed to the water and the roots can absorb nutrients from the water.


This makes it easier for hydroponics plants to absorb nutrients than traditional soil growing methods.


The principle is to fix the plant rhizome in the planting basket and let the roots grow naturally into the plant nutrient solution.


This nutrient solution replaces the natural soil to provide water, nutrients, temperature and other growth factors to the plant body so that the plant can grow normally and complete its entire life cycle.


Hydroponics can reduce harmful substances in indoor air, such as formaldehyde and benzene. They can be used to improve indoor air quality and beautify the indoor environment.


However, there are some things to note when growing hydroponic plants:


1. Hydroponic plants need to change the water regularly to avoid the growth of bacteria in the water. Generally speaking, it is better to change the water once a week.


2. Hydroponic plants need the right amount of light for photosynthesis. However, excessive sunlight may cause algae growth in the water, so the duration and intensity of light need to be properly controlled.


3. Hydroponic plants need proper nutrients, you can use a special water culture solution or add some fertilizers to the water.


The following are some types of hydroponic plants suitable for growing at home:


1. Lotus: Lotus is an aquatic plant, suitable for growing in water. Lotus flowers are beautiful and fragrant. Planting lotus flowers can not only increase the oxygen content of the room but also purify the air.


2. Bamboo: Bamboo is a common hydroponic plant whose root system can grow in water. Bamboo stalks are straight and green and can play a role in beautifying the indoor environment.


3. Hanging orchid: hanging orchid is a common hydroponic plant, its root system can grow in water. The leaves of hanging orchids are tender and green and can play a role in beautifying the indoor environment.


4. Dutch daffodil: Dutch daffodil is a hydroponic plant whose roots can grow in water. The beautiful and fragrant flowers of daffodils can increase the oxygen content of the room.
