Watering Gardenia, Spider Plant and Pothos with a kind of drink: the leaves turn glossy green and more than 30 flower buds pop out

In everyday life, we can't do without all kinds of drinks. At home we drink a bit of milk in the morning, tea at noon, and when we go out and get too thirsty and hot we buy some drinks. Some of them can actually be used to water flowers. If there is some left over, you can pour it out for your plants to drink. After drinking it, not only do the leaves turn even more glossy green, but some flowering plants produce quite a few more blooms. Let's take a look!

"Have a drink"

-Dairy products-

Milk is very rich in nutrients, with a high content of protein and calcium, and drinking it regularly is very good for your health. Leftover milk, yogurt, milk powder and dairy drinks can all be used to water flowers. However, it is best to ferment these first before using them. The nitrogen and phosphorus elements in dairy products can provide many nutrients for plant growth.

If the amount is small, you can dilute the dairy product 10 times, dig a small trench at the edge of the flower pot and pour it in, then cover it with soil.

If the amount is larger, then it is best to ferment it first before use. Collect the dairy products into a large plastic bottle, fill it with water, and screw on the cap, but not too tightly, to prevent the gas from bursting the bottle. Open it once in a while to let the gas out, and after 2-3 months it is ready to use. However, fermented milk has a rather strong smell, so those with balconies should not bother fermenting it.

-Leftover tea-

Using leftover tea to water flowers is very good for plants when done well, but it can also easily cause problems when done poorly. Leftover tea leaves contain a relatively high amount of potassium, and it is recommended to ferment them before use, as this can improve soil structure and supplement potassium fertilizer.

Put the leftover tea water in a bottle, leave it for a few days to ferment, then dilute it and water the flowers with it.

-Apple cider vinegar-

Apple cider vinegar is the vinegar formed after apple juice is fermented, and it is not the vinegar in your kitchen. Apple cider vinegar drinks generally also have quite a lot of apple juice added, otherwise they would be very sour. Apple cider vinegar contains pectin, vitamins, minerals and other substances, and can aid digestion.

After apple cider vinegar is diluted with water, it becomes acidic, and it has a very good effect on acid-loving flowers such as jasmine, gardenia, rhododendron and Aglaia odorata. It can alleviate the chlorosis symptoms of acid-loving flowers such as gardenias. Watering with a little of it regularly not only makes the leaves more glossy green, but also helps the plant bloom. When using it, you can add water to dilute it 500 times and water the flowers with it.

-Beer-

Beer counts as an alcoholic drink, and whether you drink a little when guests come or just normally yourself, the leftover beer is also very good for watering flowers. Beer is also a fermented product, and its components are basically some small-molecule sugars, amino acids and other substances, which are very beneficial to flower growth.

Dilute beer with water 50 times, and basically all flowers can use it.

When flowers such as Clivia miniata are "stuck" and cannot push out their flower stalks, you can tie the leaves on both sides together and cut a small slit with a sterilized blade, then water the plant with diluted beer, and the flower stalk of the Clivia miniata will quickly shoot out.

Use diluted beer to wipe the leaves, and the leaves become more glossy. It is suitable for plants with relatively flat and smooth leaf surfaces, such as pothos, Clivia miniata and rubber tree.

So drinks are actually very good for plants too
