Add a little "oil" to the pothos pot, and its stems grow thick and its leaves green; in 30 days it climbed "1 m" up the wall!

Pothos survives as soon as it meets water, with a very tenacious vitality, and is called the "flower of life." At the same time, pothos's ability to purify indoor air is definitely no exaggeration. In a newly renovated house, pothos is the most suitable plant to place, as it can effectively absorb harmful substances such as formaldehyde and benzene indoors. According to scientific statistics, in a room of 8-10 sq m, one pot of pothos is equivalent to an air purifier.

Pothos is easy to grow, but to grow it well you have to think of some methods. Super-capable flower lovers all have all kinds of "big moves" that can make their pothos grow emerald green and robust! Today Shitou will also share with everyone a little trick for growing pothos, a little trick about fertilizing. Pothos is a flower that likes fertile soil, and of course it grows fast, so it naturally needs nutrient supplementation. Cooking oil from the kitchen is a very good fertilizer, rich in lipids, oxalic acid glycerides, vitamins and other substances, and the carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus elements it contains are essential elements for plant growth. With a little processing, cooking oil will be a very good flower fertilizer.

Mix a small amount of cooking oil with rice-washing water, put it in a bottle to ferment, and use it as growth fertilizer for pothos. Fertilize once every ten days, and in one month it will grow to fill the pot, climb up along the wall, and grow into a pothos wall. The details are introduced below:

Mix cooking oil from the kitchen with rice-washing water at a ratio of 1:10, put it in a plastic bottle, and after two weeks of fermentation, if the liquid in the bottle turns white, it means fermentation succeeded. When fertilizing the pothos, mix it with water at a ratio of 1:2, pour it into the pothos pot, and just water it directly at the roots. The best time to fertilize is in the early morning and at dusk, when the temperature is suitable. Fertilize once every ten days, and in one month you will find the pothos growing with lush branches and leaves; place the pot against the wall, stretch a few thin lines on the wall, and let the pothos climb up along the wall, easily growing into a pothos wall.

For flower lovers who like to grow a pothos wall, there are two points to pay special attention to when cultivating it:

1. Choose the location

If you want the pothos to grow up along the wall, when choosing the position for the pot, it is best to choose the base of the wall, so the pot will not be conspicuous, but the wall surface chosen is best a place with good light, which will greatly promote leaf growth later.

2. Supplement foliar fertilizer

Once pothos goes up the wall, the whole plant becomes larger and the leaves become more numerous, and its demand for nutrients will gradually increase. In addition to fertilizing the roots of the pothos, supplementing foliar fertilizer is indispensable. Each week, you can use a water solution mixed with potassium dihydrogen phosphate and water at a ratio of 1:500, spray it onto the leaf surface with a spray bottle, and supplement fertilizer for the leaves.
