The 30 most valuable types of garbage can be used to grow flowers without fertilizing or turning leaves!

Use it to grow flowers and no longer need to fertilize   

1 egg white

1. Crack the eggs and separate the egg white and yolk. You can use a plastic bottle to suck out the entire yolk.

2. Add one liter of warm water to the egg white to dilute it. It is better to have a thinner solution than a thick one, because too high a protein content will attract insects. It is best to sprinkle some insecticide when using it in the summer.

3. Water the flowers and plants with the diluted egg white. Egg white was originally intended to provide nutrients to the chick in the yolk. It is rich in nitrogen and is a "meal" for flowers and plants.

If flower lovers have time, they can put the egg white in a sealed beverage bottle and ferment it for a few days for better absorption effect.

2 egg shells

1. Don’t throw away the egg shells left over from eating eggs. They are rich in calcium and are a good fertilizer for flowers.

2. Wash the eggshells, dry them in the sun, and crush them.

3. Pour rice vinegar into the broken eggshells. Note that the rice vinegar cannot contain salt. This way the vinegar and eggshells react and the calcium ions in the eggshells are more easily released.

4. After stirring evenly, let it stand for a while, you will see bubbles coming out violently. When all the bubbles are gone, the liquid inside can be used.

5. When using, the clear liquid after the reaction should be diluted at a ratio of 1:2000, and then water the flowers to avoid burning the seedlings. The remaining eggshells can be crushed and sprinkled on the surface of the potting soil, which can not only prevent insects but also slowly release nutrients.

3 quail eggs

1. Choose quail eggs or smaller bird eggs. If the flower pot is large, you can also choose chicken eggs, duck eggs, etc. In short, it depends on the specific situation of the flower pot. No matter what the egg is, you must choose raw eggs and cannot cook them.

2. Knock a small hole on the top of the eggshell, and then place the bird egg at the bottom of the flowerpot when planting flowers. The nutrients in the eggshell will continue to dissipate as the eggshell degrades, and can slowly supply nutrients to the flowers and plants.

4 bean cake peanut cake

1. The things left over from pressing oil from soybeans, peanuts, sesame seeds, etc. are very good raw materials for flower fertilizers. The cake fertilizer often mentioned in flower cultivation is the flower fertilizer made from these things.  

If flower lovers can get these things from the oil mill, they can use them as flower fertilizers.

2. Break the bean cakes into small pieces, the finer the better.

3. Put the crushed bean cake residue into a plastic bottle, add water to cover it, seal it and place it in the sun.

4. After about a month, when you open the bottle and there is no odor, you can use it. When using, take the clear liquid from the upper layer, dilute it with water in the ratio of 1:2000, and then water the flowers. It can be used about once a month. The residue from the lower layer can be buried at the bottom of the flowerpot as base fertilizer.

5. Moldy soybeans

1. Don’t throw away the broken or moldy soybeans. Use them to soak in water and water the flowers to make fertilizer!

2. Put the rotten beans in a plastic bucket, add water to cover the beans (don’t fill it too full), then seal it and place it in the sun.

3. Open the lid from time to time to let some air in. After about a month, the water used to soak the beans can be used. When using, dilute it at a ratio of 1:200, then water the flowers. It is only necessary to use it about once a month.

6Soy milk residue

1. The dregs left over from making soy milk are actually good materials for growing flowers, so don’t throw them away.

2. Put bean dregs and water in a ratio of 1:10 into a plastic bottle, seal it and place it in the sun.

3. Open the bottle from time to time to let it breathe, and it can be used in about half a month. When using, dilute the upper clear liquid with water at a ratio of 1:2000 and use it to water the flowers. The remaining sediment can also be mixed into the flower soil for use. Generally, it can be used once a month.

7. Tahini

1. Expired sesame paste will release a layer of oil, which is inedible, but it is a good fertilizer.

2. Seal the expired sesame paste in a plastic bottle, add a small amount of water, stir evenly, seal it and place it in the sun.

3. After about one or two months of exposure to the sun, the sesame paste can be seen to have obvious upper and lower layers. The clear liquid on the upper layer can be diluted with water at a ratio of 1:2000 and then used for watering flowers. It only needs to be used once every 1-2 months. The residue on the lower layer can be mixed with potting soil and used.

8 Old Bark

1. Rotten old tree bark, especially pine bark, can be taken home, crushed, and directly mixed into the potting soil. It can slowly add humus to the flowers and plants.

2. For bark that is not completely rotten, it must be fermented before use. First, cut the bark into small pieces to speed up the fermentation process.

3. Put the bark in an iron bucket (plastic bucket), add water to cover the bark, seal it with a lid and put it in the sun. It can be used in about 1-2 months.

3. When using, directly take out the fermented bark and mix it into the soil. You can also dilute the fermented liquid with water at a ratio of 1:2000 and then use it to water the flowers.

9. Yogurt water

1. After drinking yogurt, there will always be some yogurt left in the bottle. You can rinse it with water and then use it to water the flowers directly.

2. Because the yogurt has already been fermented, there is no need to ferment it again and it can be used directly.

10. Expired milk

1. Flower lovers should not throw away expired milk, as it is rich in nitrogen. After fermentation, it is a great tonic for flowers and plants.

2. Put the milk in a plastic bottle, add water and seal it in the sun. It can be used to water the flowers in about 10 days. Dilute it at a ratio of 1:200 when using.

11 Rice washing water

1. Do not throw away the remaining water after washing rice. The fermented rice water is weakly acidic and is very suitable for flowers and plants such as green radish, gardenia, and jasmine.

2. Put the rice water into a plastic bottle, seal it and place it in the sun. It can be used after about half a month. Please dilute it in a ratio of 1:20 and use it once a month.

12 Rotten Fruit

1. Flower lovers should not throw away rotten fruits, fruit peels, vegetable leaves and other kitchen waste. Just process them briefly and you don’t need to buy fertilizer when growing flowers!

2. Chop rotten fruits, peels, vegetable leaves, etc. into pieces and put them in a sealed plastic bucket.

3. Add water to cover the fruit and place the plastic bucket in the sun. It can be used in about 1 month.

4. When using, take out the liquid on the upper layer, dilute it with water at a ratio of 1:2000, and then water the flowers. Use about 1-2 times a month.

13. Sesame oil

1. Flower lovers can use expired or dusty sesame oil to water flowers. Clivia, orchids and other plants will grow better with some oil!

2. Scoop out half a spoonful of sesame oil.

3. Dig a small hole 2-3 cm deep on the side of the orchid pot and pour the sesame oil into it.

3. Then cover it with sesame oil. However, this kind of oil has strong fertility, so don't use it often. Once every 3-4 months is enough. Don't use it on small or weak seedlings, as they are easily unable to be replenished. Haha.

14 Rotten fish and shrimp

1. Leftover shrimp heads, fish bones, rotten fish and shrimp, fish intestines and fish blood left after washing fish, etc., can be made into good phosphorus and potassium fertilizers after a little processing, and are very popular with roses.

2. Put them together in a plastic bottle, add water and seal it, then put it in the sun. When the water turns black, it can be used. Dilute the fishy water with water at a ratio of 1:2000 and water the flowers and plants.

15 Fish tank water

1. For flower lovers who keep fish at home, when changing the water for the fish, do not throw away the changed fish tank water, as it contains fish excrement, which is a dilute organic liquid fertilizer.

2. Because the fertilizer is very mild, you can water the flowers directly without dilution.

16 Vegetable washing water

1. Do flower lovers throw away the water left over from washing vegetables? There are often a lot of pesticide and fertilizer residues on fruits and vegetables. People cannot eat these things, but flowers like them. Using them to water the flowers can also supplement their nutrients!

2. Let the water used for washing vegetables dry in the sun for half a day, and then you can use it to water the flowers.

17 Plant ash

1. The ash left after burning dead leaves and plants can not only disinfect and kill insects, but also is a good phosphorus and potassium fertilizer.

2. When using, just sprinkle the wood ash directly on the surface of the potting soil. The nutrients in the wood ash can be released with the water when watering. Of course, you can also soak wood ash in water and then use the water to water the flowers.

18 peanut shells

1. Peanut shells, melon seed shells and other oil crop shells are actually very popular with Clivia. Collect them and put them in the flower pot of Clivia. Basically, you don’t need to fertilize for a year.

2. Boil the peanut shells or soak them in water for a few days. Be sure to change the water when soaking.

3. Put the peanut shells in a sealed plastic bag and dry them in the sun.

4. When the peanut shells turn black and break into pieces when squeezed, they can be used. Just mix them directly into the potting soil of the Clivia.

19 Waste oil in range hood

1. After a period of time, some waste oil will settle in the range hood. Pour these things into flower pots and they will become good fertilizers, especially for flowers and plants with fleshy roots such as Clivia and orchids.

2. Sort out the waste oil and put it in a small container that is easy to pour.

3. Use a small wooden stick to poke a few small holes on the surface of the soil in the Clivia pot. It is best to poke along the red line in the picture below, close to the edge of the pot, so that it is not easy to contact the roots and cause root burn.

4. Pour the waste oil into the small hole, being careful not to fill the hole completely. Leave some space to cover it with soil. Do this once and you won’t need to fertilize the Clivia for about 2-3 months.

Use it to grow flowers and no longer have yellow leaves     

1. Vinegar

The yellowing of flowers and plants such as gardenia, jasmine, and camellia is largely due to the alkaline soil. Vinegar is weakly acidic and can alleviate the yellowing of leaves caused by soil salinity to a certain extent.

When using, add a few drops of salt-free vinegar to the water, stir well and water it on the flowers.

2 Rusty Nails

Yellowing leaves of flowers and plants such as lucky bamboo may also be caused by iron deficiency. Throwing two rusty iron nails into the hydroponic bottle can release trace amounts of iron into the water and prevent yellowing leaves of flowers and plants due to iron deficiency.

3. Charcoal

Charcoal has the function of preserving and purifying water. Putting a few pieces of crushed charcoal in the hydroponic bottle of hydroponic flowers and plants can absorb impurities in the water and prevent the flowers and plants from turning yellow due to root rot.

4 Mosquito-repellent incense ash

The ash left after burning mosquito coils can be sprinkled on the surface of the potting soil to effectively prevent insects from infesting flowers and plants, and avoid yellowing leaves of flowers and plants caused by pests.

5. Cigarette Butt Water

Flower lovers who have family members who smoke can soak cigarette butts in water. Using the soaked water to water the flowers can also prevent insects from infesting the flowers and avoid yellowing leaves caused by insects.

6. Garlic water

Due to its bactericidal function, garlic can effectively drive away ants, snails, aphids and other flower and plant pests, preventing flowers and plants from turning yellow due to pests.

When using, mash the garlic, then soak it in water for half an hour, and use the soaked water to water the flowers.

7. Beer

Beer contains sufficient carbon dioxide, which can promote the photosynthesis of flowers and plants. When the leaves of flowers and plants turn yellow, rubbing some diluted beer on them can quickly make their leaves green again.

8. Leftover tea

Leftover tea water is slightly acidic and can be used to water flowers. It can alleviate the compaction and salinization of the soil and prevent yellowing of leaves. However, you should pay attention to the rules when watering flowers with leftover tea water, and do not use the flower pots as waste buckets.

9. Aspirin

When lucky bamboo, spider plant and other flowers and plants turn yellow because they do not take root, you can use aspirin tablets to promote rooting. When using, crush the small tablets and dilute them at a ratio of 1:2000. You can use it to water the flowers or put it in a hydroponic bottle.

10Rainwater

When it rains, do flower lovers just let the rain water flow into the sewer? Rainwater is the most suitable for watering flowers. It has a moderate pH value and will not cause yellowing leaves of flowers and plants due to excessive alkalinity.

Of course, flower lovers who live in buildings in the city can also collect rainwater. In order to grow flowers, Huahua has to try his best!

11 Air conditioning condensate

Flower lovers who often use air conditioning will find that condensed water will be drawn out from the air conditioning drain holes. This water is similar to distilled water, has a moderate pH value, and has very little pollution. It will not cause yellow leaves of flowers and plants due to hard water quality.

Place a bucket near the drain hole of the air conditioner, collect the condensed water and place it indoors for a day or two. When it is almost at room temperature, you can water it directly.
