In autumn, water the jade plant (Crassula ovata) with this kind of old-trunk water, and it will grow madly for half a year to become a big old trunk.
In recent years, many people like to keep some flowers and plants at home, which can beautify the home, adorn life, and also cultivate the mind. The jade plant (Crassula ovata) is a very excellent potted plant, with peculiar leaf shapes like green jade, and vigorous, quaint, and ancient-looking branches, quite full of the charm of an old tree. In summer it blooms profusely, with green and white intermingled, very elegant and unique.
As midsummer passes, after autumn arrives, the weather gradually turns cool, and the jade plant resumes growth. At this time, water it with this kind of "water" once every 7 days, and it will keep pushing out new buds constantly, growing madly, and after half a year it will become a "big old trunk"!
The jade plant prefers fertilizer, and its sprouting ability is also strong. Besides needing sufficient nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium fertilizer, it also has a relatively high demand for some other trace elements. This so-called "water" is earthworm castings water. Earthworm castings are rich in nutrients and are called the king of organic fertilizer. They can be directly absorbed by the jade plant's root system without affecting the roots. They are also a granular substance that can improve soil structure and increase air permeability.
The specific method: after rain, you can collect some earthworm castings in parks and other places, put them under the sun to bake until completely dry, then grind them into powder for later use. If you find it troublesome, you can directly buy some online.
Mix the earthworm castings powder and clean water at a ratio of 1:100. After stirring evenly, let it sit for 2-3 hours so that part of it dissolves in the water. Stir once more when watering, then slowly pour it in from the edge of the flowerpot, once every 7 days. After one month continuously, stop for half a month, then continue watering. Repeat this until the Winter Solstice.
Watering repeatedly in this way can prompt the jade plant to push out new buds constantly, make the branches thicker and stronger, and quickly turn into a "big old trunk". It also helps increase resistance and lets it get through winter better.
