Some novice flower growers have little experience and easily mean well but do harm. For example, after rinsing rice, they pour the rice water straight into the pot. How can that work?

Huahua teaches you the correct way to water flowers, come and see!

Water flowers like this with rice water, and the leaves will be green and plump

When cooking porridge or steaming rice at home, you first rinse the rice with clean water. Rice water is a great thing for watering flowers, but some flower lovers do not use it well, and the more they water, the more the plants die. Hurry and see how Huahua uses it!

1. Collect rice water

Rice water contains nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and a variety of trace elements. Give flowers a few sips and it can make them grow faster, with bigger and greener leaves. Anyone who throws rice water away is being foolish!

2. Put the rice water into a plastic bottle

Find a clean plastic bottle and pour the rice water into it, filling it to 80 percent full. You can also add a few pieces of orange peel, which can give the fermented rice water a fresh fragrance. Tighten the bottle cap and put it in the sun.

3. Fermentation is complete after 2 weeks

After about 2 weeks, when the rice water turns yellow or black, fermentation is complete. Remember during fermentation to unscrew the cap every 2-3 days to let it breathe, then tighten it again.

4. Dilute with water and water the flowers

After the rice water has finished fermenting, take out an appropriate amount, add 10 times the amount of clean water, stir evenly, and then you can water the flowers. The flowers will grow like crazy, with big green leaves!

5. Which flowers can be watered with fermented rice water?

After fermentation, rice water becomes weakly acidic, so do not use it on flowers that like alkaline conditions, such as cactus and golden barrel cactus. Plants like azaleas, pothos and money tree are very suitable for watering with rice water, and the more you water, the more vigorous they grow!

Water flowers like this with leftover tea water, and the buds will be big and dense

Some flower lovers heard that tea water can be used to water flowers, so they poured leftover cold tea directly into the pot. Unexpectedly, after a few days the flowers showed yellow leaves and wilting. It is all because you used it wrong. Hurry and look at the correct method!

1. Collect leftover tea water

Overnight leftover tea water contains elements such as calcium, phosphorus and potassium. Use it to water flowers and it can make the flowers bloom bigger and more brilliantly. It is too wasteful to throw it away, so collect it quickly.

2. Ferment the leftover tea water

Put the leftover tea water into 1 clean mineral water bottle. If you have brown sugar at home, add a little to the bottle to make the tea water ferment faster. Tighten the bottle cap and leave it for 3-5 days, then it can be used to water flowers.

3. Dilute with water and water the flowers, and the flowers will grow wildly and fill the pot

Pour out part of the fermented leftover tea water from the bottle, then add 20 times the amount of clean water to dilute it, stir evenly, and water once a week. After drinking it, the flowers will sprout buds like crazy, and the leaves will be so green they shine!

4. Which flowers can be watered with fermented leftover tea water?

If you grow gardenia, azalea, Milan and other flowers at home, never throw away leftover tea water again.

Water flowers like this with meat-blanching water, and the branches will be thick and strong

When cooking meat at home, you have to blanch the raw meat in hot water to remove the fishy smell. This meat-blanching water is also a great treasure for growing flowers, so never casually pour it into the pot! Huahua teaches you the correct way to use it!

1. Let the meat-blanching water sit and cool

Meat-blanching water contains nitrogen, phosphorus and other nutrients, and is very suitable for watering flowers, but you must let it cool first.

2. Put the meat-blanching water into a plastic bottle

Find a clean plastic bottle. After the meat-blanching water cools, pour it into the bottle, filling it to 80 percent full. If you are worried about smell, add some orange peel or tea leaves to remove the odor. Tighten the bottle cap and put it in the sun for 7 days.

3. Dilute with water and water the flowers

After 7 days, the meat-blanching water is fermented. Pour some out, add an equal amount of clean water to dilute it, and after the flowers drink it, the leaves grow rapidly and the stems grow wildly!

4. Which flowers are suitable for watering with fermented meat-blanching water?

After the meat-blanching water is fully fermented, it is very suitable for watering pothos, asparagus fern, happiness tree and other flowers. It will definitely make them grow much faster than without it, with greener and denser leaves!
