Just pour the leftover drink into a pot, and the flowers will grow like crazy after 7 days!

1. Fruit vinegar

One day, when Huahua opened the refrigerator, she found a bottle of fruit vinegar that had been opened for more than a month. It would have been a waste to throw it away directly, so Huahua suddenly had an idea: since fruit vinegar is also acetic acid, could it be used to water the flowers?  

Directions:

1. If you want to use fruit vinegar to water flowers, you must first dilute it with water at a ratio of 1:2000. Because fruit vinegar is an acidic beverage made from various fermented fruits, if you use it to water the flowers without diluting it with water, it can easily burn the roots.

2. Use the diluted fruit vinegar solution directly to water the flowers. This acidic water can effectively improve the alkaline condition of the soil and has a good effect on acid-loving flowers such as jasmine, gardenia, azalea, and Milan.

2 Fruit enzymes

In recent years, fruit enzymes have become more and more popular among people. They not only have high nutritional value, but also can improve the digestive ability of the intestines and contribute to physical health. It is also great to use fruit enzymes to water the flowers! What’s more, you can make this fruit enzyme at home without having to buy it!

Directions:

1. If you want to make your own enzymes, the first things you need are fruits, brown sugar and water.  

2. The best golden ratio of enzymes is 1:3:10 for brown sugar, fruit and water respectively. Put them all in a plastic bottle and seal it for fermentation according to the corresponding proportions. The temperature is high in summer, so you can put it in the sun to speed up fermentation. Gas is easily produced during fermentation, so you can poke a few small holes in the bottle to allow for ventilation.

3. It will take about 2-3 months for the enzyme to be successfully fermented. Flower lovers can dilute it with water in a ratio of 1:500 and directly water the flowers. The effect is great!

3. Expired milk

Huahua drinks milk every day, so she stocks a lot of milk in the refrigerator. However, it will easily expire and deteriorate over time. Huahua basically uses the expired milk to water the flowers. Because milk contains a lot of protein, the nutrients after fermentation can be absorbed by flowers.  

1. If the expired milk has a sour taste, you can dilute it in a ratio of 1:50, dig a shallow groove on the edge of the flowerpot, pour the diluted milk in, and then cover it with soil. This way, there will be no odor. However, be careful not to let the milk directly contact the roots, otherwise it will easily burn the roots.

2. You can pour the expired milk into a large bottle, cover it with a lid and seal it. Open it once in a while to let it breathe. After about 1-2 months, the milk will be completely fermented. At this time, you can dilute it with water in a ratio of 1:50 and water the flowers directly without worrying about burning the roots of the flowers.

4. Yogurt

Many flower lovers know that yogurt has a very short shelf life, especially in the hot summer, it is very easy to expire. In fact, expired yogurt, like milk, can be used to water flowers.  

Directions:

1. Spoiled or leftover yogurt cannot be used directly to water flowers. It can only be used after it is fully decomposed. Otherwise, if it is poured directly into the flowerpot, it will easily attract insects.

2. You can collect the yogurt into a bottle, add some rice water or something like that, and expose it to the sun. It will ferment successfully in about 1-2 months. When watering the flowers, just add water in a ratio of 1:20.

5. Beer

All flower lovers know that Huahua lives in Qingdao, where beer is produced. When you get off work, you can buy a pound of it from a roadside stall and take it home to grow flowers. It is so convenient and affordable!

Directions:

1. As long as it is a foliage flower, such as green ivy, Clivia, Monstera, etc., the leaves can be wiped with beer. Dilute the beer you just bought or expired beer with water in a ratio of 1:50. Then dip a soft cloth in the beer and gently wipe the leaves, wiping both sides. After wiping, the flowers and leaves can absorb the nutrients in the beer, making the leaves greener.

2. In addition to wiping the leaves, you can also mix beer and water, put it in a spray bottle, and spray it on the leaves. For flowers with small leaves such as spider plants and geraniums, this can also achieve the effect of spraying foliar fertilizer.

3. The last method is the well-known method of watering the flowers. Dilute the remaining beer from wiping or spraying the leaves in a ratio of 1:50, and pour it directly into the flowerpot to make the flowers grow more vigorously. But be careful not to use it too short, about once a week is enough.
