Some medicines have excellent sterilizing and antibacterial effects, and they can also supplement various nutrients for flowers. They not only benefit humans but also greatly help plants. Vitamin tablets and aspirin are also great choices for growing flowers. Pills that are about to expire or have recently expired may as well be used for growing flowers.

The first is vitamin B12, and its role in growing flowers: preventing and treating root rot. After plant roots rot, you must cut off the rotten parts and then disinfect them. Generally, a potassium permanganate solution is used for soaking. If you cannot find it, you can use vitamin B12 tablets instead. Soaking for about 10 minutes can also achieve a sterilizing effect and promote rooting.

It is more suitable for acid-loving flowers such as gardenia, jasmine, and camellia. After vitamin C dissolves in water, it becomes weakly acidic, and watering with it can regulate the acidity and alkalinity of the soil. Secondly, it can also eliminate chlorine in water. Put 1 vitamin C tablet in a basin of water, and after half a day it is ready for watering. It can remove chlorine from the water and also regulate the pH of the soil.

Aspirin contains salicylic acid, a substance that can promote plant growth, prevent pathogen invasion, and promote rooting. Used as rooting water, aspirin is still crushed, with a ratio to clear water of 1:5000. When using it, soak the cuttings for propagation in the aspirin solution, and they will root much faster than those not soaked. For regular watering, crush aspirin, with a ratio to clear water of 1:3000~5000. After watering, it can promote plant growth. It is especially suitable for watering plants such as pothos and spider plants.

Let's talk about pothos and spider plants. The original growing conditions of pothos are in forests shaded by towering trees, so its positive phototropism is not strong. But in the autumn and winter in the north, to compensate for the lack of temperature and photosynthesis, its light exposure should be increased. The method is to place the pothos in the best-lit spot indoors, or move it to a sealed balcony to bask in the sun at noon. At the same time, when the temperature is low, open the windows as little as possible, because in a very short time the leaves may be frostbitten.

Spider plants like water, and during the vigorous growth period the potting soil should be kept completely moist. During the winter dormant period, water again only after the surface of the potting soil is dry to a depth of about 1 cm. If the soil is too dry, the leaf clusters may temporarily fade in color and recover only after watering again, while the leaf tips may permanently turn brown, greatly reducing their ornamental value.
