A few days ago, Huahua read some experience shared by master gardeners and discovered that there really are things you can use to grow flowers everywhere in life, whether it's "trash" or all kinds of small items from daily life, they can all help, and the care results are pretty good too. Now Huahua knows that to grow flowers well, you need to quickly put all the little things around you to use!

Actually, expired medicines and spoiled fruits and vegetables in daily life are all treasures for growing flowers. The elements in them can provide plants with plenty of nutrients and make plants and flowers grow more vigorously. Next, Huahua will recommend a few small methods for growing flowers with vegetables and fruits!

1. Use rotten tomatoes to grow flowers

Tomatoes are a fairly common vegetable in daily life. They are sweet and sour and delicious no matter how you eat them, but there is just one bad thing: they spoil easily and are not easy to store. Now you don't need to worry too much when tomatoes go bad - we can use them to add nutrients to flowers, so they won't go to waste.

The first step in making tomato fertilizer is to crush the rotten tomatoes into a paste, then put them into a plastic bottle that can be sealed. Next, we need to add a little rice-washing water to the plastic bottle, to about three-quarters of the bottle, and finally twist the bottle closed a little and place it in a cool place to wait for fermentation. When using the fermented tomato fertilizer, you need to add water again to dilute it, and then you can use it on the plants and flowers in your home.

2. Use lemon water to grow flowers

We all know lemons are an acidic fruit, and they are usually enjoyed as a drink. In fact, lemon water can also be used as a light fertilizer water to neutralize the pH of the soil, because many southern plants like to grow in acidic soil, but most northern soil is alkaline. Mixing in a little lemon water is very helpful for the care of gardenias, jasmine, and others!

The lemon water used to water flowers is not the kind we drink ourselves in daily life, but rather the lemon slices left after we finish drinking, placed in water for a second fermentation. Watering flowers with lemon water after this second fermentation can let many southern plants grow just as well in the north!

3. Use watermelon rind to make light fertilizer water for watering flowers

Watermelon is delicious, but the leftover watermelon rind is even more useful. Huahua previously introduced the method of using watermelon rind to grow flowers, and the effect is really very good. Watermelon rind contains fruit acid elements, and using it to grow flowers can make the leaves of flowers and plants more glossy and also increase the number of blooms.

When making fertilizer from watermelon rind, it is best to use only the white part, remove all the red flesh, then chop it up and put it into a bucket, add clean water to eight-tenths full, which can avoid an explosion caused by too much gas produced during fermentation. Place it in a cool place for about half a month, and then it can be used for flowers.

These vegetables and fruits really do work pretty well for growing flowers. Flower-loving friends might as well give them a try!
