Can you grow indoor plants in just water💦? 

i’ve transferred All 200 plants from soil to water 2 years ago and they’re thriving more now than when they’re in soil! Don’t be scared to transfer to water. I grow orchids in water as well. I now use pumps with some of my plants and they’re just as happy as the plants without a pump. All glass in every plant, some with rock lava some without. I use chicken poop fertilizer once a month added to my water.

Excellent video! No frills, drama or lengthy tales of what’s happening in your personal life 🤓. Very informative, thank you.

-I gently knock off as much soil as I can then slowly rinse the rest off. (garden hose in summer, bucket of water in winter). -I have been using water from my aquarium into my jars for many years and my plants seem to LOVE it! Aquarium water is also what I use for my potted plants. No need to purchase fertilizer. Thank you for your simple explanation; life is already complicated; the simpler the better. I would also encourage anyone to experiment with various plants. Trial and error makes you better!

Always great info! I have Hoyas, string of nickels & spider plants growing in water. They are all thriving.

I grow a Pothos in water using the water from my fish tank. I assume that would provide nutrients from the fish to enhance the plant.

Can somebody please tell me how putting a plant in water doesn't cause overwatering? it's literally like the most overwatering you can do, right?

Awesome info. Done this myself with several plants. But now I use Lechuza Pon, which contains pummice aswell.

Great video. When you use nutrients ,What nutrients do you use and how often?

I had pothos growing in my fish aquarium some years ago. It did extremely well. The vines came out and did some travel across my ceiling. The vines coming out of the tank were a solid 1/2 inch thick.

Great video as always... But, Surely just adding LECA / Perlite to provide support for the roots is not enough to provide the stuff that ferts provide - N/P/K/micronutrients. What's the exact recommendation for liquid ferts? Could you touch upon that?

Thank you! I like keeping my plants in water and they grow quite fast, I agree. I have bought a few opaque vases for this purpose. I find that water get foggy looking in clear vases, after less than a week. Roots grow faster in opaque vases. Which makes sense because soil is dark. Have you tried putting fish like Beta fish or goldfish in the water? I would like your opinion on this since I would love to try it myself but don't want to kill the fish or my plant, lol 😀

Thank you. Have question though. Are non-transparent pots suitable too?

How do you often replace water, hit to prevent algae, and how often do you add nutrients ?

Excellent clear as crystal video simple and to the point. Thank you plenty for sharing your expertise with us, I appreciate it very much. 👍👏🙌

So far I haven't tried this with any plant. but I do have almost all plants from the -best water plants- list xD Maybe I should try. gotta find a suitable vase first. I think it would be interesting to see the difference to growing in soil. also, could you make a video about Aglaonema/Chinese Evergreen sometime, please? I feel like I could need some expert tips for mine. 👏🏼

Thank you was wondering about this and if you had videos the subject. I have been trying to grow plants in water. i am hoping that you do more videos on this subject.

I learned so much about hydro culture and hydroponic enough to know the difference between the two. Love your channel and all the content you bring. Thanks for sharing and looking forward to learning more about other topics and plants. 👍

Don't you get a problem with algae if you're using perlite or leca? Just in water, the algae would be easy to clean off. Also please do a video showing how you change the water when the plant is growing up a support - eg climbing philodendron types. Thanks.

Do you have a video about converting 'water roots' to soil roots?

I live in a dry envt. Growing my Calathea Dottie in hydro was easier than in soil. My potted Calathea just gets crispy leaves even with local humidification. Now most likely this plant is not suitable for my locale, but I managed to grow it well in a fishbowl with a lower pumice layer of water and an upper layer of leca with the plant in it. There's so much humidity in the fishbowl and enough water for the Calathea to not go crispy.

i have had a lucky bamboo in water for the past 3 years, it's amazing. The newer leaves have come out a lighter green, which i like , so i left it that way. I have it, as yours, in a glass vase. I have a pottery vase i am wanting to find a plant to grow in water, is it important the roots get light when growing in water? is there a big difference is adding water to changing the water??? ( i have only changed it once, maaaaybe twice.....) Also, i have algae growing in my water bottle i use to water my plants outside.... what should i do to stop that? does it make it "bad" water if i keep on using that bottle??? thank you very much !!

Please, can I grow Guzmania bromeliad plant in water? Thank you

Thanks for all the info... And of course as always, very informative. Have been growing Pothos in water for a long time now. What surprised me is Crotons & ZZ . Now the only challenge is, to keep the mosquitoes from breeding.

Are there any enzymes or products that you can use for water grown plants that either promote root growth or help prevent root rot?

How about Fiddle Leaf Fig?

Im growing my cannabis plant in water, and i change the water every day, wash the leaves and roots off, and add fertilizer, and a little dirt

I have one in water but it doesn’t seem to be growing any other leaves. Same either way my o ace lilly. It’s droopy.

My monsteras just drastically rotted. Nothing but a nub and a bunch of roots 😢lol

Can you cut the air roots if it gets too long?

I discovered if I add a tiny bit of dead sea bath salt they thrive more I also add a little aquarium rocks and some zeolite I have a zero water filter

Plont power! Informative videos with just the right amount!

Since i joind your channel my plants / trees and my wife are growing happy 🌟

I'm trying this with my rubber plant because it refuses to grow in dirt. Thanks so much for all your knowledge.

I would like to see how you fertilize plants in pumice

🤯 a Zz plant can grow in water??? I purchased an x large pot of Raven zz only to find the roots rotted. Chopped all of the rhizomes off and let it callous over, now trying to propogate these giant stems in water🙏🙏. Praying it works, because I lost about 10-20% of my new plant! I always have issues with Zz's and I absolutely love this one!!! I have seen all of your videos on Zz's and still have trouble 😳.

HELP! i moved all my houseplants with soil roots to water, it's been a week all my pothos, scindapsus and monstera adansonii are fine, but i'm having issues with my brasil philodendron, prayer plant and philodendron micans, both the micans and prayer plant and my cheese plant are getting several yellow leaves - the logic to move them to water first was to make the transition easier by growing water roots, i dont know what to do now i'm panicking any help will be greatly appreciated- should i cut off all soil roots and let it fully grow in water? Should i just put it in leca now and leave the soil roots? Its been a week? I dont want my other plants to also turn yellow. Should i add nutrients?

Love your knowledge!!!!!! And it solved a lot of problems for me and some of my plants 🪴

Can I keep it in the water or do I always have to put it in soil

My algomenia cuttings grow well in water

Can i grow lemongrass indoors without soil?

.. Spider plants and Sanseviera can grow in water too..

Brilliant, really appreciate the plant list 👍

Very useful information. I have a doubt. Does the tap water in Sweden good for watering plants? Does it cause brown tips on leaves?

Thank you for sharing this valuable information!! Hi! May I ask if hibiscus and zebra plant can be grown in LECA? I’m contemplating transferring my plants, including hibiscus and zebra plant to semi hydroponic, even perhaps using a self-watering system. Thank you!

Any fertliser brand recommendations? I am in Australia and it's very hard to find hydro-specific...Great video, thanks!

I've been struggling to learn to make the perfect soil mix for my indoor plants and now i find that can simply be put in water .. :)))

Thank you very much for the video. I was looking to learn about growing plants in water. Would you please help what type of nutrient I should use in Canada for hydro culture? How many drops ? Do I need to throw away the water with the plant food, or keep the same water with fertilizer until I change water next week?

Good explanation, what about spider plants, hedera ivy ,sansiverias.. anthurium?

Thank you so much for sharing!! I've slowly but surely have been transferring some of my smaller plants from soil to sphgnum moss and, or water, I change the water once a week, I feed them with liquid fertilizer once a month and they've been doing well so far!! I've chosen to do this because I'm tired of getting fungus gnats, forgetting to water plants in time and they just look prettier in water and, or moss!!❤🥰🙏

Great video indeed! I love the Monstera in the tall vase. I'm in the UK, how can I obtain Swedish tap water ??? 🤪🤣😁 I love your videos, Thank you.

You said there are 5 things a plant needs to grow, 1 of which being "nutrients". Where do the nutrients come from for a water-based plant?

Splendid video love and many many thanks from India🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Swedish Plantguys is for plants, like James Hoffman for coffee. videos are extreme informative, educational level.

Excellent. This is a great video I enjoyed. Thank you very much.

You can grow orchids in water too!

Does anybody know the name of the larger plant on the top right of the screen? It's beautiful

Syngonium, Chinese money plant, money plant, philodendron birkin

Thank you so much. You explained it simply and perfectly.

Swedish Plant Guys, where do hydroculture plants get their nutrients from?

...and eliminate the fungus gnats! Sounds great to me! Thanks!😊

Keeping in a transparent glass vase causes algae.... Is it injurious for the plant. Is it okay to use liquid seaweed manure instead of a hydroponic nutrient

My alocasia was dieing and I put it in water as last resort. I am waiting to see if it's going to make it. If it makes it I'm not taking it out of water ever.

I had a peace lily in water for about 6 mons, and the roof all rotted… I would like to try again, can you give me some tips to avoid root rot?

I want to Crossbreeding wild plants and I don't know how are there books that you recommend for me

Thank you for sharing beautiful and amazing plants collection lovely

Excellent videos, each one of them. Thanks, very informative.

As usual, an excellent video!

Do you add water or remove all of the old water and adding fresh water if that makes since??

Please make video about Begonia. And propagation..

Thank you! This is very encouraging news! Will try it with my monstera!

Thank you for such an informative video. Do I have to use glass, or transparent containers? Do I have to trim back the roots occasionally?

Another excellent video that answered a lot of my questions. Thank you

Thank you again for sharing us informative video that really helps a lot for me.

Very informative tutorial. Thank you!

My monstera root rot in soil so I clean it up and put it in water with leca balls, the new roots are so big and I change water almost every three days. It also grow new leaf, and suddenly it starts to root rot again. Is it due to too many roots? Do I have to trim the root?
