The wastewater in your home is actually magic water for plants: leaves grow glossy and roots get a boost

Many plant lovers rarely fertilize their plants, basically keeping one pot until it dies. When plants are grown this way, they often don't grow well in the later stages, with lots of yellow and withered leaves.

Actually, you don't necessarily need to buy so much fertilizer. You can try these magic waters from daily life to let your plants eat and drink their fill, making the leaves even more lush and green.

Rusty nail water

Iron is one of the basic elements for forming chlorophyll. If plants like gardenia, azalea, and lucky bamboo lack iron, their young leaves will turn yellow, and in severe cases they will scorch and drop off.

Ferrous sulfate solution is a very good method, but ordinarily you can also soak some rusty nails yourself to make rust water,which after being absorbed by gardenia, azalea and other plants can alleviate yellowing leaves,and can keep lucky bamboo green all year round!

Soak rusty nails in water. Because they are rusted, the iron element is more easily released. Non-rusted or stainless steel nails won't work.

Let it sit for 3-4 days, and once the water turns yellow and cloudy, you can start using it. Each week you can pour out a small cup, dilute it with 10 times the amount of water, and water the roots. If it's hydroponic lucky bamboo, you can pour it directly into the lucky bamboo container.Or you can just drop the rusty nails directly into the water bottle, which is also a very easy method.

It can be used for azalea, camellia, hydrangea, gardenia, jasmine, lucky bamboo and other plants.

Rice washing water

Rice washing water is rich in protein, starch, vitamins and other nutrients, and after fermentation it becomes slightly acidic, suitable for the vast majority of plants.

Rice washing water can be fermented for a few days before use. Pour the rice washing water into a bottle, add some orange peel, and after a few days when it turns slightly yellow, it's ready to use.When using it, dilute with about 10 times the amount of water. It's suitable for long-term use on plants.

Meat blanching water

Water from washing fish, washing meat, blanching meat, and pork ribs can all be used. It contains more oils, protein and other nutrients. You can collect it as usual, let it cool, and pour it into a bottle.Add some orange peel and let it sit for 3-5 days, and it's ready to use! When using, dilute 1:10 and water your plants.

It's very good for foliage plants, such as money tree, Monstera deliciosa, Radermachera sinica, Aspidistra elatior, and rubber tree!

Vinegar water

Vinegar water has many uses. The most important one is that it can change the soil environment, which is very suitable for the conditions of northern plant lovers. An acidic environment can allow some acid-loving plants to improve their ability to absorb phosphorus and iron,preventing plant chlorosis.

Many plant lovers also use diluted vinegar to water camellias and other plants, spraying before the camellia buds form, about once every half month, which improves both the number and size of the flowers.
