Gardeners find it very practical for watering flowers - it can keep any flower alive
Growing flowers depends 30% on fertilizer and 70% on water, so the importance of watering has gradually become more prominent. Many flower enthusiasts do not lose their flowers prematurely for other reasons, but because they have not mastered watering techniques, resulting in flowers being killed by watering. In fact, vegetable-washing water works quite well for watering flowers, and flower enthusiasts should definitely use it.
Benefits of watering flowers with rice water
Rice water contains sufficient elements such as potassium and calcium. Potassium can serve as a raw material for plant photosynthesis. Then, if trace elements are lacking, plant leaves will develop spots and yellowing.
After fermentation, rice water becomes slightly acidic, which can regulate the pH of the soil, then benefit the growth of acid-loving flowers, and extend the flowering period.
How to grow Clivia (Clivia miniata)
1. Fertile soil
Clivia needs fertile soil. The soil can be mixed yourself. Mix leaf mold, river sand, pine needles, and ordinary garden soil at 1:1:1:2 and it will be well blended.
2. Sufficient light
Clivia likes a semi-shaded and moist environment, but do not let direct sunlight hit it. Shading can be used, but it still needs a certain amount of scattered light so the flowers bloom well.
Flower enthusiasts now have some understanding of the uses of rice water, right? Remember to ferment the rice water in a mineral water bottle. Do not screw the bottle cap on tightly. Fermentation can be completed in about a week. Then dilute the rice water with water before using it to water flowers, so as not to burn the plant roots.
