Bury tea leaves in the flower pot as fertilizer, the soil becomes fertile and the leaves climb all over the stairs

They say every autumn rain brings a bit more chill. Although the autumn tiger is still fierce, cooler days are clearly on the way. Autumn is exactly when the plants at home grow like crazy, so instead of waiting, why not hurry up now and compost some soil and add some fertilizer, and when it cools down give it to your plants. Your plants will surely grow like they have been injected with adrenaline, growing nonstop!

Add a bit of tea leaves to the soil, and the pothos will climb all over the stairs!

A couple of days ago, Huahua discovered a flower friend's pothos, hung directly at the stairway entrance to grow, and after trailing down it became a dazzling waterfall, simply leaving Huahua dumbfounded!

How to use tea leaves to grow pothos?

1. Previously some flower friends told Huahua that they had also used tea leaves to grow flowers, but why did their plants all burn to death? It must be because you did not compost them! Tea leaves absolutely cannot be used directly on flowers; they must be composted before use!

2. Filter the water out of the leftover tea leaves, dry them and collect them, then use the sandwich composting method of 1 layer of garden soil and 1 layer of tea leaves, mix the tea leaves and garden soil together, spray with water to moisten, then seal and ferment.

3. Tea leaves can basically be composted in 2 months. If you want to speed up fermentation, you can also mix a little yeast into the soil, and then it basically only takes 1 month to finish composting. Stir the finished tea leaf soil a little, and it is ready to grow flowers!

4. Tea leaves contain potassium fertilizer. Using them to grow flowers can supplement potassium for pothos, making the pothos root system thicker and stronger and the leaves greener and shinier. Although tea leaves are alkaline, as long as only a small amount of tea leaves is mixed in during composting, it is basically no problem!

Poke a corn cob into the soil, and the clivia leaves will be glossy and shiny!

With the weather turning cool, in less than 1 month it will be time to repot clivia, so why not hurry up now and get ready? Prepare nutrient soil for the clivia at home, and you can use it directly when repotting!

How to use corn cobs to grow clivia?

1. When you usually go to the supermarket to buy sweet corn to eat, do not throw away the leftover corn cobs. Taking them home for composting is really a good thing! If you are a flower friend in the countryside, the corn cobs left after shelling the corn are best boiled in hot water before use.

2. Cut the collected corn cobs into small pieces, or crush them into fragments with a grinder, put them in a slightly larger flower pot or foam box, then add garden soil, mix together to compost soil, and place it under the sun to bake. It basically only takes about 2-3 months to compost into corn cob nutrient soil!

3. The nutrient soil composted from crushed corn cobs is loose and breathable, especially suitable for growing clivia roots. Even if you occasionally water too much, the excess water can quickly drain away, preventing clivia from waterlogging and root rot!

4. If you think composting soil takes too long, you can also directly chop the corn cobs into small sections of about 2-4cm, place them under the sun to bake, and after the corn cobs are completely dried, burn them with fire to turn the corn cobs into a charcoal-like substance.

5. Place the burned black pieces of corn cobs directly at the bottom of the orchid pot, which can also achieve the purpose of making it loose and breathable, so that the orchids no longer suffer from waterlogging and root rot, and grow more and more vigorously!

Mix some fruits and vegetables into the soil, and the roses will burst with buds!

After getting through the hot summer, autumn has arrived again, which is when roses bloom. If you want the roses at home to bloom quickly in autumn, you need to start preparing compost now!

How to compost with fruits and vegetables?

1. Summer fruits and vegetables rot easily if you are not careful. Since summer temperatures are also high, why not take advantage of now and collect these rotting things and fruit peels to use for composting!

2. Find a large vat or plastic bucket, throw all these fruits and vegetables into it, then add garden soil dug from outside and mix together. You can use the sandwich composting method: first lay a layer of garden soil at the bottom of the pot, then add a layer of fruits and vegetables, then add soil again, until the flower pot is filled.

3. To prevent attracting bugs when composting soil, you can add some insecticide such as imidacloprid to the flower pot, then seal it and place it under the sun to ferment. Basically it only takes 1 month to finish composting!

4. After the weather turns cool, you can stir the nutrient soil a few times and use it when repotting the roses. The composted fruit peel soil is rich in nutrients and can make the roses burst with buds in autumn, blooming more and more!

After seeing Huahua's method,

Has everyone learned it?

Why not hurry up and get started now,

So your plants at home can bloom more and more vigorously too!
