Kitchen seasoning diluted with water to water flowers: no yellow leaves, nonstop blooms, and it even treats pests

Summer is here, and the hot, humid environment makes potted flowers grow poorly all the time. Either the leaves turn yellow or pests strike. For gardening friends who do not want to go to the flower market to buy fertilizer, take note: this kind of seasoning in the kitchen, diluted with a bit of water and used to water flowers, means no yellow leaves, nonstop blooms, and it even treats pests.

First, let us look at why potted flowers easily get yellow leaves in summer. It is because summer temperatures are high, and many gardening friends do not shade their potted flowers, so strong sunlight scorches them and the leaves turn yellow. Or watering too much can also cause yellow leaves. Another reason is that in summer many gardening friends are too lazy and do not want to fuss over the flowers, so over time the flowers may get yellow leaves from a lack of fertilizer.

Next, let us see what magical seasoning in the kitchen can treat yellow leaves on flowers. It is white vinegar. White vinegar itself is acidic, and diluted with a bit of water to water flowers, it can improve soil acidity and prevent yellow leaves on potted flowers. Generally once a week is enough.

In addition, many gardening friends like to make their own plant-growing nutrient solutions, such as using leftover dishes after they decompose as humus soil, or using fermented rice-washing water to grow flowers. During fermentation, these produce a strong, pungent stench that many gardening friends cannot stand. So we can drip a few drops of white vinegar into them to effectively remove the odor and smell.

Pests on potted flowers are also a rather annoying problem. We can chop up the small hot peppers at home, put them in a clean bottle, add an appropriate amount of water, soak them for a few days, then dilute with a bit of water and spray it on the affected parts. Twice a day, and after a few days of spraying, it can effectively kill the pests.
