This is an advantage of not having to manipulate dirty soil. You also don’t need to place a container under the hole to let the water drain out. And no need to water. Great idea!

I have a snake plant, spider plant, and a pythos vine thriving in water. Tap water at that. As soon as I put something in soil it dies. So this is the route for me. Now to figure of veggies 🤔

Your very clear directions and explanations give me and my brown thumb the courage to give this a try. Thank you.

When you said I could try this with a snake plant I got excited - my snake plant has babies growing off of it! Perfect opportunity to give this a try. Thank you for the clear instructions and advice

Very interesting video. The only plant I have grew in water is sweet potato slips. I put cuttings in water to root and then set them out in the garden, You did a great job explaining the care and what needs to be done on a regular basis. Thank you for a great video. Take care.

when I used to grow plants hydroponically I found foliar feeding was very beneficial to address nutrient defficiences. I enjoyed it verry much and only stopped due to fertalizer costs, nothin better then eating fresh veggies when it is -40 out side.

hydrogen peroxide is my suggestion to dilute and clean things up vs soap( I had better luck keeping alge at bay)

I have my syngonium in water for already a year. I fertilise once a month as these plants actually do not need that much fertiliser (every 10 days). I trim it sometimes and start the plant all over again to achieve a small and clean look.

I think mine keep doing on me because they’re not cuttings. I transfer from soil to water. Maybe that shocks the plant.

Where did you get the propagation wall decor?

Cool "vases" and the hangers for them 😍I personally don't have any houseplants (unless chilies count 😃), but I know that my parents have a bunch of cuttings from a plant I can't remember the name of growing in water in drinking glass sized glass containers. I don't think they use any nutrient for them though 🤔 They seem to grow along nicely still.

Love this! ❤ do you just clean the algae off the roots?

@geekygreenhouse 7 ай бұрын

Yes, just gently rinse them off occasionally when you’re cleaning the vessels!

@taz3452 4 ай бұрын

Thank you for your excellent videos...what kind of water do you use? What fertilizer do you recommend to add to the water? You have very beautiful plants.

What's the nutrition that you give them?

Can you grow aloe in volcanic rock without soil?

@rexxdoggy Ай бұрын

So when converting a soil based plant to water, will the current soil roots rot out? Or how does that work. I tried this recently with an alocasia and when changing the water and cleaning the vase, I noticed some of the roots falling apart. So of course I repotted back in soil after cleaning the root system up and trimming back. I want to try again with another one to see if I can get this right lol

@geekygreenhouse Ай бұрын

Yes, this happens. If the plant is small enough, you can rinse it in the sink with lukewarm water and rinse off any dead roots. I like to stay on top of this as the plant is transitioning. You should see new water roots emerging.

@rexxdoggy Ай бұрын

@@geekygreenhouse ahhh okay, so there will be roots rotting during the transition. I will try again and stay on top of it and power through the urge of potting in soil to save it lmao thank you!

Can you use tap water?

@geekygreenhouse 7 ай бұрын

Yes absolutely. Some plants (like spider plants and calathea) are more sensitive to unfiltered tap water. They’ll show this with browning at the tips of their leaves. But tap water is perfectly fine.
