Have you ever heard about hydroculture or hydroponics, it is a form of cultivation whose substrate is water. Imagine how beautiful your favorite glass vases will be with different plants, this way will allow you to decorate your house not only with the plants but with the containers that contain them.
Once the container has been chosen, all we have to do is go around the friendly nursery and buy some liquid fertilizer to give nutrients to our plant. Also ask about expansive clay, some plants will need a little substrate to keep their roots supported.
The roots will very easily absorb nutrients through water, and will become vigorous in a short time. I can’t even tell you the convenience of being able to go on a trip and not have to worry about watering the plants. If you are a traveler at heart, this is a solution to keep your plants beautiful without risks. I won’t go any further, write down these ideal plants for water and start your hydroculture.
You will recognize this plant immediately, its spiral stem will give a chic touch to your home. The Lucky Bamboo really likes light but not direct sun, which could burn its leaves. Place stones in the bottom of your container to allow the roots to grip and give the plant stability.
