Benefits of Baking Soda for Watering FlowersWhen pathogens appear on plants, you can mix baking soda with a certain amount of clean water and water it or spray it on the roots, stems and leaves of the plants. This can prevent and control pests and diseases such as powdery mildew and sooty mold, and can also play a role in sterilization and disinfection. Spraying baking soda with water on flowers can make the colors more vivid and can effectively prolong the flowering period. The disadvantages of using baking soda to water flowersBaking soda is an alkaline substance and is not suitable for acid-loving plants. It can easily cause the soil to become alkaline, causing the leaves to turn yellow and affecting the growth of the entire plant. When baking soda comes into contact with air, it will produce carbon dioxide. Too much carbon dioxide will affect the activity of plants, causing them to wither or even die. The concentration of baking soda is very high and needs to be diluted before it can be used to water flowers, otherwise it will easily burn the plants and cause root rot. How to water flowers with baking sodaBaking soda is an alkaline substance, so it is suitable for alkali-loving plants and flowers. Our common rhododendrons, hydrangeas, autumn sea cacti, cacti, etc. can all be watered with diluted baking soda. When we improve the pH value of the soil on a daily basis, we can mix a spoonful of baking soda with 4 liters of clean water and then spray it on the soil surface. We can also mix a spoonful of baking soda with about 1 liter of clean water and then spray it on the leaf surface or water it into the soil to effectively kill bacteria and insects. |
