Can flour be used as fertilizer?

Flour as fertilizer

Flour can be used as fertilizer. Only ammonium nitrogen and a small amount of trace elements can form fertilizer. However, please note that it will only be effective after fermentation. In addition, a large amount of carbon dioxide will be formed after the flour is fermented, and the fertilizer efficiency is not high.

Flour as fertilizer is suitable for most plants, such as roses, green ivy, osmanthus, gardenia, tiger skin orchid, Clivia, money tree, lucky bamboo, etc.

How to make flour as fertilizer

Pour the flour into the container, then add ten times the volume of water, stir evenly and let it ferment naturally. Generally, the fermentation will be completed in about 30 days. At this time, you can directly spray it on the plants. It is a very good organic fertilizer.

Key points for using flour fertilizer

1. If flour is used as fertilizer, you need to take the liquid on the top and dilute it with water. Spray it directly on the soil when watering the flowers. It is rich in various nutrients needed for plant growth and is an excellent flower fertilizer.

2. Flour cannot be mixed into the soil for growing flowers, as there will be insect eggs in it, which can easily cause insect damage to the plants. After watering, the soil will become sticky, thus affecting the breathing of the plant roots.
