No flower fertilizer for your plants? Here are 6 ways to make your own flower fertilizer that are a hundred times more effective than store-bought! Household garbage contains abundant sources of fertilizer for plants; with the right preparation, it is both simple and highly effective.

1. Liquid organic fertilizer

Put poultry and animal manure and urine, soybean residue and soybean cake, freshwater fish innards, as well as fruit peels and rotten vegetable leaves, together with rice-washing water into a crock, cover it and seal it to ferment. The rice-washing water should be more than the miscellaneous materials, and it should ferment fully. Generally it is prepared in autumn, sealed, and opened the following year; dilute it at a water:fertilizer ratio of 8:2 and apply it as a top dressing. The nutrients it contains are fairly complete, and it has a good effect on improving the physical and chemical properties of potting soil, as well as on the growth and development of flowers and their flower bud differentiation.

2. Bone meal fertilizer

Soak leftover meat bones and chicken, duck and fish bones in water for 24 hours, wash off the salt and impurities, then steam them in a pressure cooker for 20 minutes, take them out, crush them, and after they decompose, they can be mixed into the growing medium as a base fertilizer,

or sprinkled on the surface of the potting soil as a top dressing,

or you can directly buy bagged defatted bone meal, which is a complete fertilizer mainly based on phosphorus.

3. Green manure

Take a small amount of bone meal and plant ash and put them into a crock or bowl, soak them in water, then add an appropriate amount of vegetable leaves or tree leaves and green grass; after about 1 month of fermentation, once decomposed, scoop it out and it is ready to use. This kind of fertilizer is economical and practical with high fertilizer efficiency, and can make plants have green branches and leaves and beautiful flowers.

4. Cake fertilizer

Put tofu residue, soybean residue, peanut residue or rapeseed residue, etc. into a crock, add water and let it ferment and decompose; after it has fermented, mix it at a water:fertilizer ratio of 6:4 and use it as a top dressing, with fast results.

5. Medicinal residue fertilizer

Mix Chinese medicine residue into garden soil, put it into a crock or pack it into a jar, add rice-washing water and let it ferment. After the Chinese medicine residue ferments into humus, cover it with a layer of soil, and take it out whenever needed. This kind of flower fertilizer does not harm the plants, and can also be mixed into water for use; it has the effect of promoting growth and strengthening stems and leaves.
