Benefits of bone meal for watering flowers

Bone meal is rich in phosphorus and calcium, both of which are essential nutrients for flower growth. Bone meal can slowly release nutrients. During the entire growth process of the flower, bone meal will slowly decompose. The nutrients in the bone meal will also be released. Mixing some bone meal into the soil of the flower will not cause fertilizer damage to the flower and promote the growth of the flower.

Disadvantages of using bone meal to water flowers

Bone meal cannot be poured directly on the surface of the soil. It needs to be buried shallowly in the potting soil, or used as base fertilizer. When used as base fertilizer, a layer of soil should be covered on the base fertilizer. The bone meal must not directly contact the roots, otherwise it will easily burn the roots of the flowers.

Also, do not use too much bone meal to water the flowers. Too much will have an adverse effect on the flowers. Only a small amount can promote the growth and flowering of flowers.

How to water flowers with bone meal

Bone meal is suitable for watering flowers such as gardenia, jasmine, camellia, and Clivia. Soak the leftover bones in water for 12 hours, then wash away the salt. Put the soaked bones into a pressure cooker and steam them for 20 minutes. Then take out the bones, crush them into bone meal, and then mix them with half sandy garden soil before watering the flowers.
