Pot culture can be combined with plant division operation. Chlorococcus is planted alone, and the culture container is usually a small aquarium. Pay attention to the place where it is placed, and choose a place with bright light and no direct sunlight. Firstly, clear water is injected into the cultivation container, and then the prepared seedlings are directly put in.
Chlorococcus does not require high water quality, so it can be cultivated in fresh water with high hardness. The pH value of the water body is preferably controlled between 6.8 and 7.5, that is, slightly acidic to slightly alkaline. It grows slowly and requires less fertilizer.
Extended data:
Although Chlorella is a lower plant, it does not have as developed roots as angiosperms, but can directly absorb nutrients from water through its body surface. Therefore, in the rapid growth stage of plants in spring and autumn, a small amount of liquid fertilizer can be applied to water every 1-2 weeks.
In the shade of the environment, the photosynthesis of plants is slow, which is not good for their growth; However, if the light is too strong, it is easy to entangle with other algae, which will affect its growth and greatly reduce its ornamental value.
Under good management conditions, Chlorella is not easy to get sick and less attacked by harmful animals. This plant is perennial, but it grows slowly and has a very long life. It takes decades for this plant to grow into an algae body the size of a baseball. When its growth potential is obviously weakened, it should be replaced by a new cultivated plant.
