Put some bricks in the flower pot, and your plants will grow more and more vigorously

Not long ago, Huahua discovered another flower-growing magic tool, and that is the unwanted "brick" by the roadside. But the brick here refers to the red brick used when building houses in the past. It is relatively heavy, and its surface has many air pores, so the effect of using it for growing flowers is really superb. Let's take a look together with Huahua below!

Red brick is actually a kind of stone, but the difference is that red brick has been fired at high temperatures, which means the bacteria and impurities inside it are reduced accordingly. Moreover, red brick contains a large amount of iron, and iron happens to be very beneficial to the growth of flowers and plants. Putting it into a flower pot allows plants and flowers to better absorb nutrients during photosynthesis, so the plants will also grow more vigorously.

When using red brick for growing flowers, we need to break it into small pieces, so that it can play its role to the greatest extent. We should try to place it at the bottom of the flower pot, because its own breathability does a good job of alleviating water accumulation at the bottom or within the soil. It can also make the soil more breathable, so the plants will grow even more vigorously.

In fact, besides bricks, there are many things we can put in the soil to increase breathability and improve drainage, such as charcoal and ceramsite. Charcoal is the kind of charcoal we usually see when eating barbecue in daily life. Charcoal itself contains a large amount of nutrients, and it also has a certain moisture-proof effect, so placing it at the bottom of the flower pot can play a certain breathability role.

In addition, charcoal, like red brick, has air pores and a certain looseness, which can prevent water accumulation at the bottom of the flower pot. Even better, charcoal has a certain sterilizing effect, so even if pest and disease problems appear in the soil, there is no need to worry too much!

Everyone should have seen ceramsite on the surface layer of many flowers and plants, because spreading it on the surface can keep the soil moist and reduce water evaporation. Ceramsite can likewise be placed at the bottom of the flower pot as a drainage layer, with a thickness of about 2 cm, so that the phenomenon of root rot caused by water accumulation will be very rare.

Ceramsite also differs from the above two in one more way: during hydroponics, it can be used as a medium to help fix the plant in place, so that the plant can grow in the right direction and will not grow crooked or grow out of place.

Now there are more and more flower-growing magic tools, and everyone can choose according to their own needs. If you have any better tips for growing flowers, you are also welcome to leave a message for Huahua!
