How to prepare nutrient soil for growing flowers?

Requirements for nutrient soil preparation

Nutrient soil refers to planting soil that is rich in organic matter, loose in texture, well-ventilated, and has strong water and fertilizer retention properties. During the preparation process, the appropriate ratio should be determined based on the properties of garden soil, organic fertilizer, substrate and other ingredients.

How to prepare nutrient soil

1. Qualified nutrient soil should be highly permeable and have the ability to retain water and fertilizer. Different cultivation substrates can be configured according to the different habits of flowers to meet their growth needs. First, you can go outside to pick up some fallen leaves and yellow leaves, preferably common sycamore leaves, and then scald the leaves with hot water for sterilization and disinfection.

2. After disinfecting the fallen leaves, cut them into pieces, and accumulate the leaves and garden soil in the order and proportion of one layer of soil and one layer of leaves. This will be more conducive to mixing with the soil and decomposition faster.

3. Cover the mixture of leaves and soil with a black plastic bag, leaving an opening for ventilation, and place it in a high temperature and sunny place to facilitate fermentation. It will be successfully made in 2-3 months.

Precautions for preparing nutrient soil

The preparation of nutrient soil should be reasonable according to the needs of different plants to ensure the normal growth of plants. The prepared nutrient soil should be exposed to the sun or heated in a microwave before use to make it as sterile, non-toxic, insect-free and pollutant-free as possible.
