Many people grow some flowers and plants at home, which not only cultivates the mind but also purifies indoor air. But recently many flower lovers have complained to me that their flowers and plants have yellowing, dropping leaves, and basically all of them have root rot. To prevent root rot, you can put these things at the bottom of the pot, and they don't cost a penny!

Glass marbles

I remember that when I was a child, what I loved most was playing Chinese checkers with my dad. Later some of the glass marbles got lost, so they were useless, and then they could be used for growing flowers. First, disinfect the glass marbles, then spread them at the bottom of the pot. This can increase the air permeability of the soil, and the next time you repot, they can be used again after disinfecting.

Lychee

Summer is the season to eat lychee. Not only can its pits be made into potted plants, lychee shells can also be used for growing flowers. First, remove the sugar from the lychee shells, otherwise they easily breed pests, then put them under the sun to bake. Wait until they are dried and put them at the bottom of the flower pot. In this way, they can prevent root rot, and after the lychee shells ferment, they can also provide nutrients to the plants.

Edamame

In summer many people buy some edamame to eat. Its shells are hard, and using them for growing flowers is also a good choice. Edamame should be boiled in clear water, the kind without salt, then wash its shells clean, put them under the sun to bake, and after the shells are dried, use them to line the pot for plants. This can likewise increase the air permeability of the soil and prevent root rot.

Corn husks

When everyone eats corn, do not throw away its husks. Friends who grow flowers can use them for growing flowers. First, dry the corn husks, then cut them into small pieces, and line them at the bottom of the pot. This can not only increase the air permeability of the soil and prevent plant root rot, but also provide nutrients to the plants. It really is a good method that kills two birds with one stone.
