Sprinkle a handful of ash in the pot, and the mosquitoes and bugs all flee; in one day it sprouts 10 new shoots and bursts the pot

Those who have lived in the countryside know that rural cooking fires use corn, peanut and other stalks, and these burned stalks are plant ash. It can prevent root rot, promote rooting, supplement potassium fertilizer, and also control pests and diseases, making it truly an all-round helper for growing flowers!

Spray a little plant ash on the flowers, and the aphids and red spider mites all die off!

1. Scoop out the plant ash from the bottom of the stove and put it into a plastic bag.

2. Find a discarded plastic bottle, scoop a small shovel of plant ash into the plastic bottle, then fill the plastic bottle with clean water. The ratio of plant ash to clean water is roughly 1:10. Tighten the bottle cap and shake hard so the clean water and plant ash dissolve as quickly as possible.

3. Pour the upper clear liquid of the plant ash into a spray bottle, and spray it toward the branches and leaves with red spider mites and aphids. Use it about once every 2 weeks, and the aphids and red spider mites will be nowhere to be seen!

Rub a little plant ash on the roots, and they will never rot again, recovering quickly!

1. Usually, when trimming the roots of flowers with root rot or repotting and trimming roots, if the trimmed roots are not disinfected, they can easily get infected with pathogens when potted, causing root rot. At this time, you can use a little plant ash.

2. Apply the plant ash to the cut surface of the roots, place them in a bright, ventilated spot to dry, and then repot them. This can increase the survival rate and avoid root rot.

Mix a little plant ash into the soil, and the flowers will be strong and rarely get sick!

1. Plant ash is rich in potassium. Mixing it into the soil for growing flowers not only makes the flower roots thick and strong and the blooms large and brightly colored, but also enhances disease resistance, so pests and diseases stay away!

2. When mixing soil for flowers, in addition to the normal substrate, add a few shovelfuls of plant ash, or mix plant ash and base fertilizer at a ratio of 1:40 and place it at the bottom of the pot.

Spread a layer of plant ash in the pot, and the little shoots pop up rapidly!

When sowing flowers and plants in autumn, after sowing, you can sprinkle a thin layer of plant ash on the surface of the pot. This can maintain moisture and temperature for the soil, and the seed germination rate will be higher.

Spread a layer of plant ash on the pot surface, and the flowers will withstand the cold and not freeze to death!

Because plant ash is black in color and fine with few gaps, it has a relatively good insulating effect. In autumn and winter, if you are afraid the flowers will freeze, you can sprinkle a layer of plant ash on the surface of the flower pot to help the flowers resist the severe cold.

Plant ash has so many wonderful uses for growing flowers,

so how can you get it?

You can usually collect some fallen leaves and weeds,

find a safe place to burn them,

and collect them for use!
