Growing Plants in Water

I began growing plants in water when I was trying to root a plant cutting that I had. I loved being able to see the roots as they grew so I decided to leave the cutting in water instead of planting it. I found an old Erlenmeyer flask at Goodwill and transferred it to the flask.

I also found a neat vase that I put my bamboo into. There is a lot of neat glassware at second hand stores that would be great for growing plants in! Plant rooting in Erlenmeyer flask

So I recently started growing plants in water as I seemed to manage and kill anything in soil besides my snake plant. I use bottled water for my jars. I tried the method of changing the water every week but then my aunt told me to stop.

She said only top off your water as the plant will kinda make it own 'dirt' in the bottom of the vase. Since I've done that my plants are thriving. Figured I would share as it may work for someone else. Happy planting.
