Can lucky bamboo be watered with Coke?

Lucky bamboo can be watered with cola, mainly because the sugar and carbonic acid contained in cola can neutralize the alkalinity of the soil and keep the plant active better. However, it cannot be used directly when using it. It needs to be mixed with water first, so that it can help the plant grow.

The correct way to water lucky bamboo with Coke

When using Coke to water lucky bamboo, you need to adopt the correct watering method. First, prepare a bottle of Coke, then pour it into a spray pot, and add ten bottles of clean water into the spray pot. Shake evenly and spray it on the leaves of the flower to keep the leaves green. You can also water it in the soil to allow the roots of the flowers to grow better.

Precautions for watering lucky bamboo with Coke

1. Because cola contains a lot of sugar, it will attract pests, so after using cola to water the lucky bamboo, you need to prevent pests for the plants. It is best to spray the flowers with pesticides every three days to eliminate the pests on the plants. You can also add pesticides with inducing effects to the planting soil to eliminate pests in the soil.

2. When watering lucky bamboo with Coke, you should pay attention to the time. Do not water it when the sunlight is very strong. It should usually be watered in the morning and evening, preferably in the morning. The difference between watering in the morning and evening is mainly the temperature difference. Because the temperature is higher in the morning, the soil can better absorb water and transfer it to the branches and leaves. At night, the temperature gradually decreases, the soil temperature becomes low, and it will be difficult to absorb water.
