The correct way to grow pothos with tea water

  Pothos not only has large, thick, lush and glossy green leaves, so it has very high ornamental value, but it can also effectively absorb formaldehyde, toluene and other substances harmful to the human body. And to grow pothos well at home, using tea water is a great little trick. Below, the editor will share with everyone the little trick of how to use tea water to grow pothos.

  Friends who like drinking tea can usually collect the tea leaves residue and let it ferment, and it becomes a very useful nutrient supplement liquid for pothos. Tea leaves are rich in tea polyphenols, which not only have many benefits for the human body, but can also promote the rapid growth of pothos. The most important thing is that the fermented tea water will also show slight acidity, and a slightly acidic environment can better promote the growth of pothos, because pothos is an acid-loving plant.

  Moreover, the method of making fermented tea water is also very simple. We can put the leftover tea leaves residue into a mineral water bottle, add an appropriate amount of water, seal it, and then place the bottle under the sun to expose it so as to promote fermentation. Generally, it can fully ferment and decompose in about half a month. Then we take it out of the bottle, dilute it with water, and use it to water the pothos.

  However, although pothos likes fully decomposed fermented tea water, using tea water to water potted pothos cannot be too frequent; the frequency must be controlled to be low. Generally, watering once a month is enough. If potted pothos is watered with too much tea water, it often has the opposite effect, not only being unfavorable to its growth, but may even cause poor growth.
