When planting flowers, add some of this to the soil to ensure your flower roots grow strong and leaves green.

Add sand

Mixing sand and soil increases air permeability, which is both cost-effective and convenient. Be careful to use coarse sand, not fine sand. Fine sand has little effect and can easily cause the soil to become compacted.

Add perlite

Perlite is a substrate specially used to increase the permeability of water. It is very easy to use and many flower lovers use it to grow flowers. You just need to buy it, but if you want to grow good flowers, you'd better buy it.

Add peanut shells

Crushing the peanut shells and mixing them into the soil can, on the one hand, improve the soil's permeability, and on the other hand, provide some nutrients for the plants. Every household has them, and they are very convenient to use.

Add coal slag

If you burn a stove, there will be coal slag. Crush it and wash it clean. The large particles can be used to pad the bottom of the flower pot, and the small particles can be mixed into the soil, which can effectively improve the soil permeability.

Add crushed egg shells

When eating eggs normally, you can keep the eggshells, wash off the egg white inside and dry them, then crush them and use them as pads at the bottom of the pot or mix them with the soil. The eggshells can provide a small amount of fertilizer for the plants and increase water permeability, killing two birds with one stone.

Add wood ash

Wood ash is the ash left after burning plants. It has many benefits for growing flowers. It can prevent and control pests and diseases, and provide nutrients for plants. It contains almost all the mineral elements needed by plants. However, wood ash is slightly alkaline, so don't put too much when using it.

Add sawdust

Sawdust has good water absorption and permeability. Mixing it in a ratio of 3:1 of soil: sawdust, and adding some perlite, eggshells, etc., can effectively improve the soil structure.
