Use this to water your jade plant: Grandpa Wang raised its leaves to be glossy green and thick

During the holiday, Huahua went to play at Grandpa Wang's house next door. Grandpa Wang lives alone and usually likes growing flowers and plants. Huahua learned a lot of knowledge from Grandpa Wang! So, since there was nothing else to do during the holiday, Huahua went next door for a stroll.

As soon as I walked in, I saw the potted plant on the windowsill that looked a bit similar to purslane. Later, Huahua looked at it carefully and found that it seemed to be purslane, but also seemed not to be. I asked Grandpa Wang, how did this purslane grow so strong? Grandpa Wang laughed and said: This is not purslane at all, it is called "jade plant."

Huahua suddenly understood, but seeing the jade plant growing so well, with glossy green and thick leaves, could not help asking Grandpa Wang whether he had any little trick. And sure enough, Grandpa Wang really did! Grandpa Wang said the trick was actually very simple. The reason his jade plant grew so well was that during the time he was raising it, when watering, besides water, he also gave the plant another kind of nutrient water, which was what made the jade plant grow so well.

Grandpa Wang said this nutrient water was soybean water. The reason Grandpa Wang used soybean water was that soybeans are rich in protein and other nutrients, and over time during fermentation, these components slowly turn into nitrogen fertilizer. Nitrogen is an element very beneficial to plant growth and can make plants grow stronger. This is also the reason Grandpa Wang always used soybean water as fertilizer.

Soybean water is so helpful to plants, but making it is not difficult at all. The steps are also very simple. After reading this, give it a try! Soak an appropriate amount of soybeans in water, and watch the soybeans gradually become larger, which shows they are absorbing water. About ten hours is enough.

Put the soaked soybeans in a pot and cook them, then let the soybean water cool. You can put a little orange peel in it to prevent the odor produced when the soybean water ferments. You can also add a little insecticide, so that when watering the flowers in the future, it can also kill pests in the soil along the way. Put the soybean water into a bottle and place it in a warm and ventilated place to ferment. After about forty days, it can be used.

If everyone thinks the fermentation smell is too unpleasant, you can ferment it for a longer time. The longer the fermentation time, the less the smell. Although soybean water takes a long time to ferment, one bottle of soybean water is about enough for a plant for a year! We can fertilize according to the plant's habits, either twice a month or once a month. There is no need to do it too frequently.

So that is how it is. It seems Grandpa Wang really put in the effort! In fact, besides applying some soybean fertilizer to the jade plant, you can also prune the jade plant appropriately, which can promote the growth of new buds and will also make the jade plant grow stronger!
