Using seasonings to grow flowers: rooting and bursting into a full pot is actually very simple
Garlic
Garlic is a common seasoning in daily life, with the effects of sterilizing and detoxifying. Using crushed garlic to grow flowers will produce unexpected results.
Garlic prevents and treats root rot:
When the flowers you grow show slight root rot, we can use garlic to treat them. Once they no longer have root rot, the flowers will naturally grow lush and green~
1. Take the flower with root rot out of its pot and clean it, then use a sterilized sharp knife to remove the rotten parts.
2. Cut the garlic open, and apply the cut surface with garlic juice onto the rotted area.
3. Then place the flower in a ventilated spot, let it dry, and then repot it.
Garlic treats pests and diseases:
March is the peak period for various flower pests. If pests appear on only a small area of the flowers, we can use garlic to prevent and control them. With no more bugs, the flowers will grow even more robustly~
1. Mash an appropriate amount of garlic into a paste, add 1 spoonful of soapy water and 200 ml of clean water, stir well, and leave it overnight.
2. Filter out the residue, keep the upper clear liquid, then stir well according to the ratio of clear liquid : clean water = 1:100.
3. Spray the stirred liquid onto the areas with pests. Be sure to spray both the front and back of the leaves. Using it continuously 2 times or more can effectively kill aphids and red spider mites.
Vinegar
Vinegar can be used in daily life both for cold dishes and added during hot stir-frying. Vinegar can effectively fight bacteria and sterilize, and also has a certain effect on lowering blood pressure. Not only that, using vinegar to grow flowers can treat the problem of yellowing leaves.
Vinegar treats chlorosis:
When azaleas, jasmine, gardenias and others show chlorosis caused by unsuitable soil pH, we can use vinegar for effective treatment. Once the flowers no longer have yellow leaves, they will naturally grow green and glossy~
1. Prepare a vinegar dilution according to the ratio of vinegar : clean water = 1:500, and after diluting, spray it directly onto the yellowing leaf areas.
2. After spraying, move the flower to a place without direct sunlight.
3. Do it once in the morning and once in the evening, using it continuously 3 times or more, and you can effectively prevent the leaves from turning yellow.
Vinegar prevents black spot and powdery mildew:
When hydrangeas, Chinese roses and others show powdery mildew or black spot, vinegar can also be used for treatment. Once the flower's powdery mildew and black spot are cured, the flower will soon grow vigorously again!
1. Drop a few drops of vinegar into clean water; for about 500 ml of water, add roughly 3~4 drops, to obtain a diluted vinegar solution.
2. Spray the diluted solution onto the leaves affected by powdery mildew or black spot, 2 times a week.
3. After spraying continuously 4 times or more, powdery mildew or black spot can be effectively improved.
Salt
Salt is not only an indispensable seasoning in life; salt is also a very good boost for plant growth.
Salt removes weeds:
When weeds run rampant in the yard, but we neither want to use highly polluting pesticides nor want to spend the effort pulling them by hand, we can use salt to remove the weeds. With no weeds competing for nutrients, the flowers will naturally grow stronger and stronger~
1. Mix thoroughly according to the ratio of salt : clean water = 1:500, then add a little white vinegar.
2. Spray the solution in the yard or garden with weeds to achieve the weeding effect. Be careful not to spray too much, so as not to affect soil fertility.
Salt for preservation:
Salt can prevent plant roots from rotting by killing microorganisms and bacteria in the water. Therefore, we can use salt to extend the freshness period of flowers in indoor ornamental arrangements, and it can also make the flowers bloom more beautifully.
Dilute according to salt : clean water = 1:100, then place the cut flowers into the vase, and it is done.
White sugar
White sugar is an important seasoning in life. White sugar solution is beneficial to microbial activity and has an important promoting effect on the growth and development of plant roots.
White sugar makes cuttings root quickly:
Many people encounter the problem of cuttings not rooting. At this time, we can make our own white sugar solution as a rooting agent to increase the rooting rate of cuttings. As long as they root, before long there will be a lush green new flower~
1. Dilute according to the ratio of white sugar : water = 1:50 to obtain a white sugar solution.
2. Soak the base of the cuttings in the diluted solution for 24 hours.
3. Take out the cuttings and rinse them with clean water. After drying, they can be planted normally, and they will root quickly.
