Stockpiled small pills: take a few and put them in water, and the flowers will drink it up and grow like crazy
What we usually keep on hand at home is probably all kinds of small pills, mainly to guard against all sorts of colds, but it is inevitable that some will expire after sitting around for too long. At times like this, we should not rush to throw them away; use them on the flowers and plants in our home, because for them this is a very good fertilizer! So today, Huahua will introduce two kinds of pills that can be used to grow flowers!
1. Ferrous sulfate
Ferrous sulfate tablets are mainly used to treat our anemia problem, so when the plants we grow at home also show signs of malnutrition, it makes its appearance.
Especially when yellow leaves appear, we can crush it and mix it into water, then spray it on the leaves. This can not only effectively relieve this condition, but when used regularly it can also effectively prevent yellow leaves from occurring.
Or we can directly use it to water them, which also counts as a very good fertilizer, but this is only a good thing for acid-loving plants, such as gardenias and jasmine; it can make their leaves grow even more glossy green and bright.
2. Aspirin
Aspirin should be one of the things we always keep at home, mainly used to treat our everyday headaches and minor ailments. However, it also has many benefits for the plants at home: it can not only promote plant growth, but also have a certain disinfecting effect.
When we water, crush one tablet and mix it into the water. Using it to water the flowers can promote their growth and also make the blooms more vivid. Or spray this water onto the plant leaves, which can also reduce the occurrence of leaf drop and flower drop.
There is also when taking cuttings: we can use it to replace rooting powder. After crushing it, add an appropriate amount of water and stir evenly, then soak the branches in it for a period of time, and the rooting rate after cutting will be greatly increased.
For the fresh bouquets we buy from the flower shop, we can also add a tablet of aspirin to the water, which can appropriately extend their flowering period. When using it, we must pay attention to the dosage; do not put in too much at one time. The ratio to water is 1:2000, and it should not be used too frequently either, otherwise it is easy to burn the plants.
