Learn it quickly! The secret of flower-growing that has been passed down for 50 years is about to be lost!

Bury a plastic bottle in the soil and apply fertilizer without odor and fermentation!

Fertilizing flowers is a troublesome, time-consuming and laborious task. If it is not applied properly, it is easy to attract insects to take root. Today Huahua will teach you a convenient and clean method of fertilizing, and the fertilizer effect is quite good!

Steps:

1. Find a mineral water bottle. It should not be too long, a small one will do. It should not be too wide either, and its diameter should not exceed 1/6 of the diameter of the flower pot.

2. As shown in the picture, use sharp scissors to cut a circle from the bottom of the mineral water bottle.

3. Bury the mineral water bottle with the bottom removed in the soil of the flower pot. Note that the mineral water bottle should be buried along the edge of the flower pot and should not touch the roots of the flowers, otherwise it will easily hinder the growth of the flower roots and burn the roots.

4. Open the cap of the mineral water bottle, cut the leftover fruit peels and rotten vegetable leaves into small pieces and throw them in, then tighten the cap. This way, the rotten vegetable leaves and fruit peels can ferment inside.

5. Because of the protection of the plastic bottle, the root system will not be directly contacted during the composting process, and the root system will not be damaged. After 2-3 months, the fruit peels and vegetable leaves that were thrown in first will be completely decomposed and can provide nutrients to the flowers. Those thrown in later will remain on the upper layer and continue to ferment.

6. Using this method to fertilize potted flowers will not only not burn the roots, but it is also very clean, will not attract small insects, and will not have any odor. If you are really worried about insects in the bottle, you can spray some insecticide inside or throw in a few grains of Furadan.

Even without watering for 1 month, the flowers are still green and lush!

Many flower lovers are particularly afraid of holidays or business trips, because no one has watered the flowers at home for ten days or half a month. When they get home, they find that all the flowers have dried up and died, and they feel so sad that they have no tears! Last year, an old flower farmer told Huahua an automatic watering method. I tried it last year. After going home for the Chinese New Year for a month, when I came back, the flowers were still lush and green, and looked especially energetic!

Steps:

1. Find a plastic washbasin that is slightly larger.

2. Prepare several watertight sealed bags or plastic bags, fill them with clean water and tie them tightly.

3. Put water-loving flowers such as cyclamen, green radish, white calla lily, and pennywort into the washbasin with their pots.

4. Put the plastic bags filled with water into the washbasin. The number of plastic bags filled with water can be adjusted according to the length of time you will be away from home. If you will only be away from home for half a month, you can put one bag. If you will be away from home for a month, you can put two bags, one on each side.

5. Use a needle to gently poke 2-3 holes in the plastic bag. The holes should not be too big, so that the water can flow out slowly, not too fast!

6. The water flowing out through the holes in the plastic bag will slowly pass through the water holes of the flower pot and seep into the bottom of the flower pot, allowing the roots to absorb water for half a month or even a month. Moreover, because the holes are small and the water flows slowly, water will not accumulate and cause root rot.

Make your own greenhouse with foam boxes, and the flowers will not freeze to death no matter how cold the weather is!

Recently, there has been widespread snowfall across the country and the temperature has dropped. The flowers in many flower lovers' homes have been frostbitten or even frozen to death. It's so heartbreaking! Although it is painful, you must not give up on treatment. Follow the method below and use foam boxes to build a small greenhouse for the flowers. No matter how cold the weather is, you don’t have to worry about the flowers being frozen!

1. When buying seafood, fruits or electrical appliances, there will be foam boxes. Don’t throw them away. Pick out the intact ones and keep them. If you don’t have them at home, you can buy a few at the fruit stall.

2. Prepare several circles of iron wire or lead wire. First, measure the width of the foam box, use the iron wire to make two arcs, and wrap a small circle in the middle of each arc. Insert the two ends of the arc into the four corners of the foam box respectively, and then wrap them with tape several times to secure them.

3. Cut a piece of straight wire, pass it through the small ring in the middle of the curved wire, and then fasten them together.

4. Find a piece of plastic film or a large plastic bag, cover it on the wire rack we built, and wrap it with rubber bands or tape.

5. Make a small gap on both sides of the film to facilitate ventilation, then put the flowers in pots into the small greenhouse, and that's it! If it is not warm enough, you can put some cotton clothes or thin quilt on it. No matter how cold the weather is, you don’t have to worry about the flowers getting frozen!

6. Because each family has different materials and conditions, you can freely choose the style of the greenhouse based on the materials at hand!

Use 10 plastic bottles to grow vegetables for the whole family!

Vegetables in winter are so expensive. A trip to the vegetable market usually costs around one or two hundred yuan. It really hurts! It’s better to grow some at home. You only need 10 plastic bottles to grow enough vegetables for the whole winter!

1. Don’t throw away the plastic bottles left over from drinking water or beverages. Collect them. They should be of the same size and diameter.

2. Pick up the first plastic bottle and cut off the bottom of the bottle with scissors!

3. Turn the plastic bottle with the bottom cut off upside down, tighten the bottle cap, and then use scissors to poke a few small holes in the positions shown in the picture below.

4. Mix peat soil, perlite and vermiculite in a ratio of 4:1:1, mix well, and then put it into the first plastic bottle.

5. Place the plastic bottle filled with soil with the lid facing down next to a railing, wall or iron frame, and secure it with tape or rope to prevent it from falling.

6. Continue to cut off the bottoms of 8 plastic bottles and fill them with soil. Note that there is no need to drill water holes.

7. Cut off the bottoms of the plastic bottles, fill them with soil, remove the lids, and stack them together as shown in the picture below.

8. Stack the 8 plastic bottles on top of the first plastic bottle.

9. Fix the newly stacked plastic bottles to the railing or wall with tape or rope.

10. Take the 10th plastic bottle, keep the bottle cap, and make several small water-permeable holes on the bottle cap.

11. Cut off the bottom of the tenth plastic bottle and place it upside down on the top plastic bottle.

12. Pick up the watering can and slowly pour water into the 10th plastic bottle.

13. In this way, the water will flow through the cap of the 10th plastic bottle and gradually seep downwards.

14. The water seeps down layer by layer until the soil in the first plastic bottle is completely soaked.

15. Use a wallpaper knife to cut out a small square window in the middle of the 1st to 9th plastic bottles. Cut the top, left and right sides of the small window, but do not cut the bottom.

16. Finally, a small plastic switch device is formed in the middle of each plastic bottle to prevent the seedlings, seeds and soil from leaking out.

17. Remove the plastic sheet and use your index finger to poke a small hole in the soil.

18. Plant the vegetable seedlings or seeds you want to grow into the small holes and cover them with soil.

19. Except for the 10th plastic bottle on the top layer, which is used to store water and water, operate the other bottles as shown in the picture above, plant vegetables, and you are done.

20. If the vegetables need watering, just pour the water into the top plastic bottle. If you don’t want to water them too frequently, you can also add 1-2 more water storage plastic bottles on top. If you need to fertilize, just add compound fertilizer to the water! Very convenient! In less than 2 months indoors, the vegetables will be green and lush, and you can pick them and stir-fry them!

21. The small vegetable garden made by the above method can also be planted in the corner of your own wall or on a customized wooden frame. It is not only convenient for planting and eating fresh vegetables, but also forms a beautiful landscape, adding a touch of greenery to your home!
