Clivia fed with 1 jin of oil, leaves grow like crazy and get as fat as Chinese cabbage

Give clivia oil to drink, and its leaves will be abundant and dense!

Keeping clivia alive is easy, but keeping it thriving is hard. A gardening friend showed off her clivia, whose leaves were tightly packed and glossy, as many as Chinese cabbage leaves. Her secret is using oil to feed the plant!

How do you use cooking oil to grow clivia?

1. For the cooking oil you feed your clivia, you can use peanut oil, soybean oil, and so on. If you don't want to spare those, you can also collect some waste oil from the range hood's oil cup.

2. When using it, dig a small hole 2~3 cm deep at the edge of the flowerpot, pour in a small spoonful of oil, then cover it with soil. Using it about once every half a year is enough.

3. Cooking oil takes a long time to break down in the soil. Generally it takes 4~6 months before you see results. The leaves will grow faster, and they will be very glossy.

4. Besides burying it in the soil, cooking oil can also be used to wipe clivia leaves. Add 1~2 drops of oil to a basin of water, then dip a cloth in it and wipe the leaves. The leaves will immediately become glossy and are less likely to attract dust.

Water the camellia with a little urea water, and spring shoots will sprout like crazy!

The camellias at the gardening friend's home have finished blooming one after another. Now is the time when camellias sprout spring shoots. At this point, give the camellia some nitrogen fertilizer so it has the strength to grow new leaves!

How do you use urea to grow camellias?

1. Urea is a very good nitrogen fertilizer and is cheap. Moreover, just a few granules are enough each time, so one packet lasts a long time.

2. Dilute urea with clean water at a ratio of 1:100. For a 1-liter plastic bottle, 3~5 granules is enough. Shake well until dissolved, then pour it into the soil.

3. If the temperature at home can reach above 18°C, you can start watering the camellia with urea water now, 2~3 times a month, until the camellia's spring shoots begin to turn woody.

Give pothos a drink of fish tank water, and its leaves will grow like crazy to 2 meters!

Pothos is very easy to grow, but some gardening friends report that their pothos doesn't like to grow. Don't worry, give it some water from the fish tank used for keeping fish, and it will immediately shoot up 2 meters!

How do you use fish tank water to grow pothos?

1. If you keep fish at home, the fish droppings in the fish tank water are a natural good fertilizer. But if you have added sea salt to the fish tank, or used medication in it, then it cannot be used to water flowers!

2. When you normally water the pothos, mix in fish tank water, or you can directly use fish tank water to water it. You can use it 2~3 times a month.

3. Once the pothos absorbs the nutrients in the fish tank water, it starts shooting up and growing like crazy. The vines grow so long that they can only be hung up to grow!

Water kalanchoe with soybean water, and its leaves will be plump and glossy!

Kalanchoe has a long flowering period, and during that time it consumes a huge amount of nutrients. After the flowers fade, you must replenish fertilizer in time, otherwise the kalanchoe's leaves will become thinner and the plant will be small and spindly.

How do you use soybean water to grow kalanchoe?

1. Put soybeans and clean water in a pot, turn on the heat and boil until the soybeans are soft, then scoop out the soybeans and mash them into a paste for later use.

2. Pour the mashed soybeans and the water from the pot into a plastic bottle, then add a few pieces of orange peel to prevent odor. Then put on the lid, but don't screw the bottle cap too tight; this helps release gas and prevents explosion.

3. After a month, the soybean water is basically fully fermented. When watering the kalanchoe, dilute the fermented soybean water with 20 times its amount of clean water and water the plant. Use it once a month, and the kalanchoe leaves will become thick and glossy!

Water money tree with rice water, and its leaves will stay emerald green without turning yellow!

Money tree likes fertilizer fairly much, but its root system is not strong, so you can use mild rice water, which can keep the money tree's leaves green and glossy all the time!

How do you use rice water to grow a money tree?

1. When you normally cook rice at home, save the rice water from washing the rice. Rice water contains trace elements such as potassium, and it is slightly acidic, making it very suitable for watering flowers.

2. Pour the rice water into a bottle, put on the lid, and place it in a sunny spot to ferment. You can poke a few holes in the bottle cap to release gas. After about a month, the rice water will be fully fermented.

3. Fully fermented rice water has almost no bad smell. If it stinks, that means it hasn't fermented well. When watering flowers, note that you need to dilute the fermented rice water with 20 times its amount of clean water before watering.

4. Water the money tree with rice water once a month, and its leaves will become emerald green. When watering normally, wait until the soil is completely dry before watering, so the money tree won't get root rot and will grow more and more vigorously!

That's all for the little tips on fertilizing flowers.
