Drop aspirin into the pot, and the leaves turn so green they drip oil!
Aspirin contains salicylic acid, which can sterilize and disinfect, prevent infection, and also stimulate cell division, so roots grow faster! Remember you must use water-soluble tablets; enteric-coated tablets will not dissolve in water!
Effects of aspirin on flowers:
1. Protect the root system
When repotting flowers in spring, prune off the old roots and weak roots, then drop 1 aspirin tablet into water to make a 1:1000 solution, soak the trimmed roots for 5 hours, let them dry and then pot them up. This can effectively increase the survival rate after potting.
2. Promote rooting
Whether taking cuttings or leaf cuttings, if you don't have rooting water at home, you can use aspirin instead. Make aspirin into a 0.1% solution, soak the cuttings in the aspirin solution for 3-5 hours, thereby promoting cell division and root growth.
3. Enhance resistance
Mix 1 aspirin tablet with clean water at 1:2000 to make a solution, directly drench the roots of the plant, or put it in a spray bottle and spray the leaves. This can effectively improve the disease resistance of flowers, thereby preventing black rot, soft rot, black spot and so on.
Drop vitamin B12 into the pot, and the roots become strong and plentiful!
If you have expired vitamin B12 tablets at home, do not throw them away. When taking cuttings in spring, they come in handy. Not only does rooting speed up, but the roots also become thicker and stronger!
Effects of vitamin B12 on flowers:
1. Promote rooting
Vitamin B12 has the effect of promoting cell division. When taking cuttings in spring, crush 1 expired vitamin B12 tablet and mix it with clean water at a ratio of 1:2000 to make a solution, put the cuttings in to soak for more than 40 minutes, and it will promote rooting!
2. Sterilize and disinfect
If the roots of your flowers rot, cut off the rotten roots, then soak them in a vitamin B12 solution, also at a concentration of 1 tablet:2000 clean water, soak for 20 minutes and then pot up. This sterilizes and disinfects the roots, and the chance of rot is reduced.
3. Prevent yellow leaves
If your flowers always have yellow leaves, find an expired vitamin B12 tablet and mix it with clean water into a 0.2% solution, put it in a spray bottle and spray the yellowing leaves. After about 3-5 times, the flowers will no longer have yellow leaves!
Drop vitamin C into the pot, and the leaves will never turn yellow again!
The soil in the north tends to be alkaline. Many flowers that like acidic soil, such as jasmine, gardenia and rhododendron, often get yellow leaves because the soil is alkaline. At this point, just add a little vitamin C!
Effects of vitamin C on flowers:
1. Prevent yellow leaves
Crush vitamin C tablets and mix with clean water at 1:1500 to make a solution, then use it when watering flowers, about once a month. It can improve the alkaline soil condition and thereby avoid yellowing leaves.
2. Remove chlorine from water
Tap water generally contains chlorine, and watering flowers with it over a long time will cause the soil to harden. So before watering flowers, you can drop 1 vitamin C tablet into the water to neutralize the chlorine in the water, so the soil will not become saline-alkaline.
Drop metronidazole into the pot, and hydroponic water will never stink again!
As a medicine for treating toothache, metronidazole has sterilizing, disinfecting and antiseptic effects. Especially for the smelly situation of hydroponic flowers, 1 metronidazole tablet works better than anything!
Effects of metronidazole on flowers:
1. Hydroponic water does not stink
After a long time, hydroponic flowers produce anaerobic bacteria in the water, causing the water to stink, and over time also causing root rot. At this point, drop 1 metronidazole tablet into the hydroponic bottle and it will kill the anaerobic bacteria, and it will never stink again!
2. Prevent root rot, avoid bacterial infection
When your flowers have root rot for various reasons, be sure to cut off the rotten roots in time, then crush 1 metronidazole tablet and mix it with clean water into a 1:1000 solution, then soak the roots in the metronidazole solution to sterilize and disinfect, thereby avoiding root rot again.
Drop ferrous sulfate tablets into the pot, and the leaves become big and green!
Flowers at home, especially hydroponic lucky bamboo and the like, often get yellow leaves. I think this is caused by iron deficiency! You might as well buy some ferrous sulfate tablets at the pharmacy, and then your flowers will never lack iron and get yellow leaves again!
Effects of ferrous sulfate tablets on flowers:
1. Avoid yellow leaves
Yellow leaves in hydroponic lucky bamboo are mostly due to iron deficiency. At this point we can take 1 ferrous sulfate tablet, crush it and mix it with clean water at a ratio of 1:1000, and add a little to the hydroponic bottle about every 2 weeks, and the yellow leaf problem will be solved!
2. Promote chlorophyll synthesis, making leaves big and green
Mix ferrous sulfate tablets with clean water into a 0.2% ferrous sulfate solution, then put it in a small spray bottle and spray directly on the leaves. It can promote the formation of chlorophyll in the leaves, thereby making the leaves greener and shinier!
