Radix-Glass Medium

With the Radix-Glass you can grow flower bulbs and vegetable tubers in water while observing both the plant’s development and the formation of its root system. A narrowing in the neck of the vase creates a small platform on which the bulb or tuber rests, suspended above the water without direct contact.

The Radix-Glass Medium is particularly well suited for growing various vegetable tubers that are often difficult to fit into the Radix-Glass Small, such as sweet potato, taro, different types of radish and, of course, beetroot with its colourful roots.

In addition to autumn vegetables, the following summer-flowering plants also work very well in the Radix-Glass Medium: begonia, jacob’s lily and fireball lily.

An interesting experiment is placing a pineapple crown in the glass, which will begin to form new roots after a short time.

Collected experience, helpful tips and detailed instructions for growing these and other plants in the Radix-Glass can be found in the Brochure Radix supplied with each Radix-Glass.

Currently included is a bulb set consisting of winter daffodil, hyacinth and spring daffodil, to be grown one after the other.
