Good soil will make flowers grow better; using only mud from the ground won't grow flowers well. Many people go to flower shops to buy potting soil, but actually you don't need to spend money on potting soil - you can make it yourself at home, and the effect is even better than bought. Today I'll teach everyone to make leaf mold soil, so your flowers will have lush branches and leaves, and be full of flower clusters. Come and learn

1. Break up the collected dry grass and fallen leaves as much as possible; you can crush them with your feet. The smaller the pieces, the shorter the time needed for decomposition

2. Dig some soil from a green belt or vegetable plot and set it aside

Spread a layer of soil on the bottom of a large flower pot, then spread a layer of the collected fallen leaves on the soil. Repeat this 3-4 times. Be careful not to press the leaves too tightly; better airflow is more conducive to the reproduction of microorganisms and speeds up decomposition

3. To speed up fermentation, you can cover the pot with a layer of plastic film to increase the temperature, or place it in a spot with light. Higher temperatures help speed up fermentation. In summer, fermentation is generally complete in 2-3 months
