Autumn is just around the corner: never water your flowers with these two kinds of water, or the death rate of your plants will rise
The long summer is about to pass, and what greets us is the crisp, refreshing autumn. Along with the change in weather, growing plants becomes simpler too.
Although autumn is the peak growing season for most flowers, at this time we need to pay even more attention when growing flowers. Often, overlooking a single detail will cause the leaves to turn yellow! What I want to tell you today is that after the weather turns cool, you must never use these "two kinds of water" for watering, otherwise root rot comes easily, and every pot you water will rot!
The first kind: half-way water
So-called half-way water means stopping when the watering is only half done. In autumn, many flower growers make this mistake. The normal thinking among flower growers is that summer weather is hot, so the amount of water given increases, while in autumn, when temperatures drop, the amount of water given should be reduced.
In fact, every time you water, if you do not meet the plant's water requirement, it is equivalent to giving "half-way water." Once a plant is given this kind of water, the water easily stops halfway down the pot, so the roots at the bottom of the flower cannot absorb water and shrivel up, and rot appears. After this situation persists for a long time, the plant will show yellow leaves and withered leaves.
The second kind of water: unfermented fertilizer water must not be used to water flowers
The fertilizer water mentioned here actually refers to the water made from rice-washing water and cooked soybeans that flower growers often use for watering. Many articles say that these two kinds of water are very effective for watering flowers.
They have a great effect on robust flower growth, and both belong to the category of organic fertilizers. Pouring these two kinds of water into the flower pot can also make the pH of the potting soil slightly acidic, which is beneficial to the growth of certain plants.
Although these two kinds of water have many benefits for plants, if they are used to water flowers without being fermented, then once they enter the flower pot, fermentation will occur, thereby releasing a large amount of heat, directly burning the root system of the potted flower and causing root rot and the death of the flower!
In autumn, many flowers and plants show yellow leaves. Generally speaking, when plant leaves turn yellow in autumn, it is because they lack nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, which causes the leaves to turn yellow.
Therefore, in autumn, once you find that a plant is trending toward yellow leaves, you should promptly supplement the plant with nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium fertilizer. For example, use a potassium dihydrogen phosphate solution diluted with water to water the flowers. This can stop the spread of yellow leaves, and spraying the plant once a week can also help the plant regain its green color!
Summer is about to pass, and autumn will greet us. When growing flowers in autumn, you absolutely must not water with these "two kinds of water." Once you make this mistake, it can very easily cause the death of the plants! I hope all flower growers will pay attention!
