Add a spoonful of sugar when watering, and the leaves will be dark green, glossy and broad

Brown sugar water

Brown sugar, besides 95% sucrose, also contains some vitamins and trace elements such as iron, zinc and manganese. Watering flowers with brown sugar water is a very natural and nutritious fertilizer

Wipe flower leaves with brown sugar water, flowers red and leaves green

1. Mix 1 gram of brown sugar (about 1 spoon) with 500ml of clean water. If it is too concentrated, it will affect the leaves' breathing, so keep it light

2. After stirring evenly, it is best to put it into a small spray bottle, so it is more convenient to spray onto the leaf surface

3. Both flowering and leafy plants can be sprayed. It will make the flowers more brightly colored and the leaves thicker and more glossy green

4. Spraying brown sugar water before the flowering period can also promote flowering. If you want to see the flowers bloom quickly, get to work

Brown sugar as flower fertilizer, roots fat and fruits strong

1. Water with brown sugar water once a month (1:1000), which can promote flowering and fruiting

2. If you have fruit and vegetable potted plants at home, you can try it. This good fertilizer, brown sugar, can also make the fruits sweeter~

White sugar water

White sugar is not as concentrated as brown sugar. This is not a drawback. Used for rooting and sprouting, the effect is great

Cuttings must be soaked in white sugar water to accelerate rooting

1. Mix white sugar with water (1:90), insert the cut flower branch into the white sugar water, and soak for one day

2. Rinse the root part, and cut off 2 cm

3. Insert it into moist potting soil and wait for it to root. At this time, just keep the rooting environment moist

4. Generally, it roots in 7-15 days. White sugar water can accelerate the reproduction of biological flora, and the rooting rate will be greatly increased

Soak seeds in white sugar water, they sprout faster

1. Soak the seeds in white sugar water for one day first (ratio of white sugar to water 1:500)

2. After soaking, plant them in potting soil. This way they sprout faster and the germination rate is higher!

Onion water

Although the smell of onion makes people "tear up nonstop", flowers and plants really like it. When cooking, do not pour out the water used to soak onions so quickly. It is just perfect for watering flowers

Water with a little onion water, flowers look like they have been dyed

1. Chop the onion however you like, soak it in water for one day. Half an onion with 1000ml of clean water soaked is enough to water 3-4 pots of flowers

2. Filter the soaked onion water well, and it can be used directly to water flowers. After watering, the flowers look as if they have been given coloring agent, blooming more and more brilliantly!

One onion head prevents insects and kills insects

1. Many small insects "take a detour" when they smell onion, so the onion water we soak can also prevent and kill insects when used to water flowers

2. You can also cut the onion open and place it among the flowers (as shown below). The smell drives away insects very effectively

Potato water

Every time the flower home makes shredded potato dish, the cut shredded potatoes have to be rinsed in several big basins of water. The thick starch inside is really very good material for growing flowers

1. Soak the shredded potatoes in clean water for about 5 minutes, then take out the shredded potatoes

2. Put the remaining water into a plastic bottle, place it in a place with scattered light and ferment for about 20 days, and the starch is decomposed

3. Mix 2ml of the fermented potato water with 1000ml of clean water to water flowers. It contains phosphorus, which can promote flowering and preserve flowers~

Air conditioner water

The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and flower lovers in the south have started using air conditioners, right? The condensed water from air conditioners is really annoying. You can collect a basin in one day. Do not pour it out, keep it to grow flowers

1. Condensed water is the liquid water formed when water vapor in the air meets the condenser. It is rich in trace elements and can completely be used to water flowers and raise fish

2. The collected air conditioner water is best left to settle for 1 day before use

3. The trace elements in air conditioner water become nutrients for flowers, much better than watering flowers with tap water

Water from washing fish and meat

Many flower lovers may think when seeing this, can flowers and plants also be like people and like eating meat? Haha, they just like the nitrogen and phosphorus elements in the fish and meat residue water

1. Usually when washing meat, fish, shrimp or crab, you can keep the wastewater

2. Filter out the residue, then put it in a bottle and ferment it for 15-20 days until it is ready

3. Mix the fermented fertilizer water with clean water (1:2000) and it can be used to water flowers. After drinking the "meat water", the leaves immediately turn so green they look oily!

4. Succulents can also give it a try. Water once a month, roots fat and stems strong, no longer thin and weak little succulents!

Fish tank water

Many flower lovers have both flowers and fish at home. The water in the fish tank is very rich in trace elements and is a good fertilizer for growing flowers, so when changing the water, absolutely do not pour it out!

1. Fish tank water is acidic. Acid-loving flowers such as Chinese rose, camellia, gardenia and so on are all very suitable for it

2. Before watering, it is best to expose it to the sun for 1 day to sterilize it and also let it settle. Otherwise, watering flowers with it can easily breed bacteria or make it smell bad

3. Watering flowers with fish tank water can not only serve as fertilizer, but also increase the acidity of the flower soil, making hydrangeas gradually turn blue~

Rainwater

It is said that spring rain is as precious as oil. Flowers grown outdoors and relying on the sky are stronger than those we grow at home. When it rains, hurry to collect rainwater

1. Rainwater is formed when water vapor in the air liquefies upon cooling. It contains nitrogen from the air, so it is a very natural nitrogen fertilizer

2. When collecting rainwater, you need to check the atmospheric environment that day. If the haze is relatively serious, it is best not to collect it. The collected rainwater should also be left to settle, and it is best to sun it when the sun comes out

3. Acid-loving flowers such as Chinese rose, jasmine, gardenia, Aglaia, crabapple, pomegranate and so on can all be watered with rainwater, guaranteeing your flowers have thick roots and strong leaves!
