Foliage plants need this kind of green-leaf fertilizer in golden autumn, leaves turn glossy green and new shoots abound
As people's living standards improve, more and more people treat growing flowers as a fashion, able to embellish life, purify the air, and also cultivate the mind, calming a restless heart.
In everyday life, pothos, asparagus fern, Radermachera sinica and other foliage plants are very common. As midsummer passes and golden autumn arrives, the weather gradually turns cool and the plants resume growth, yet yellowing leaves and leaf drop are still often seen. What is going on? Today Huar will introduce a kind of "green-leaf fertilizer" to make the leaves glossy green and new shoots sprout like crazy!
This "green-leaf fertilizer" is soybean, because soybean is rich in protein and vitamins and so on; after fermentation it can produce a large amount of nitrogen fertilizer and other nutrients, especially suitable for foliage plants such as pothos, asparagus fern and Radermachera sinica, able to make their leaves glossy green and new shoots sprout nonstop!
Specific steps: take an appropriate amount of soybean, first soak it in clean water for one night, then put it in a pressure cooker and simmer for about 1 hour, until the soybean breaks apart with a gentle pinch. After it cools, put the beans together with the liquid into a plastic bottle; if there is not enough soybean water, add some clean water, then add some insecticide and fruit peel to promote fermentation and remove the odor, seal it and put it under the sun to bake.
During fermentation the soybean will produce gas, so every 3-4 days you need to let it breathe to prevent the bottle from bursting; after about half a month it can be used.
After taking the supernatant liquid, dilute it 20 times and pour it directly into the potting soil; when pouring, slowly pour it in from the edge and stop when it is nearly at the head. Once every 7 days, the leaves will be so green they drip oil and new shoots will sprout like crazy.
One thing to note: soybean fertilizer contains a large amount of nitrogen fertilizer. After Mid-Autumn, the weather will gradually turn cooler, so watering should be appropriately reduced and more phosphorus and potassium fertilizer applied, to increase the plant's resistance and help the foliage plants get through winter better.
That is all for the care of foliage plants. If flower friends have other additions, you can share them with everyone in the comment section below. To learn more about flower-growing knowledge, you can follow Huajianke!
