What is the correct way to water a Clivia with eggs?

Egg liquid can be used to water a Clivia. Eggs count as a nutrient-rich fertilizer that can boost the Clivia's root growth capacity. When watering, do not pour the egg liquid onto the Clivia's leaves. You can crush the eggs, add water, stir, seal and store the mixture, and wait for it to ferment and decompose before applying it. You can also simply add the water used to boil eggs, which is more easily absorbed.

1. Egg liquid can be used for watering

Egg liquid counts as a nutrient-rich fertilizer. Egg liquid itself contains a large amount of protein and water, can prevent the Clivia from drying out, and can also boost the Clivia's rhizome viability. In addition, egg white can help form phosphorus and potassium fertilizer, improving soil fertility.

2. Note

During watering, you must not pour the egg liquid onto the Clivia's leaves. The leaves cannot fully absorb the components in the egg, and instead the excess will remain on the leaves, ferment and rot.

3. Crush the eggs and irrigate

Crush raw eggs directly, stir them evenly with chopsticks, add an appropriate amount of clean water, seal and store the mixture, and wait for it to ferment and decompose. Then water it in a circle around the pot soil just like watering, keeping some distance from the roots. Once every half a month during the growing season is enough; do not use it too frequently.

4. Water used to boil eggs

The water used to boil eggs can also be used to water a Clivia, and compared with egg liquid, the water used to boil eggs is more easily absorbed. Dried eggshells buried in the soil can also serve as decomposed fertilizer.
