Homemade nitrogen fertilizer

Crush and boil the moldy and inedible beans, peanuts, melon seeds, castor beans, leftover vegetable leaves, bean shells, melon and fruit peels, pigeon droppings, and expired and spoiled milk powder, put them in a small jar, fill it with water, and seal it to ferment and decompose (sprinkle some pesticide if conditions permit). In order to make it decompose as quickly as possible, you can place it in the sun to increase the temperature.

When all the substances in the jar sink and the water turns black and has no odor (it takes about 3-6 months), it means that it has been fermented and decomposed. In summer, the upper layer of fertilizer water can be taken out after 10 days and used as top dressing or directly as basal fertilizer. After use, fill it up with water and ferment again. The raw material residue can be mixed into the flower soil.

Homemade Potash Fertilizer

Leftover tea water, rice washing water (preferably fermented before use), wood ash water, and water from washing milk bottles are all excellent potassium fertilizers and can be used to water flowers. Wood ash also contains potassium fertilizer and can be used as base fertilizer.

Homemade phosphate fertilizer

Pour sheep horns, pig trotters, bones, fish intestines, poultry feces, fish intestines, meat bones, fish bones, fish scales, crab shells, shrimp shells, hair, nails, livestock hoof horns, miscellaneous bones, etc. into a tank and add an appropriate amount of fermentation agent and a small amount of water. Keep the humidity at 60%-70%, seal it, and after a period of decomposition and fermentation, it can be mixed with water for use.

Chinese medicine residue

Chinese medicine residue is a kind of flower fertilizer that is both clean and high in nutrients. When mixed on the surface of the potting soil, it can improve the potting soil and keep it moist. If it is soaked and fermented into decomposed fertilizer water, the fertilizer effect will be better.

Range hood waste oil

Pour the waste oil in the oil storage box of the range hood into the soil along the edge of the flowerpot. It is suitable as fertilizer for hibiscus, jasmine, and lotus.

Utilization of Rotten Fruit Peels and Vegetable Leaves

Mix the peels directly into two-thirds of sandy soil, or put them into small buckets, pots, or other containers and seal the mouth with mud. Let it ferment into humus soil. It can be used to plant flowers directly or as a topdressing fertilizer.

Bean curd fertilizer

Put the tofu dregs into a jar, fill it with water and ferment for 7 to 10 days, then add 3/4 clean water and mix well. Use it to water potted flowers and the effect will be immediate.

Castor Seed Fertilizer

Crush fresh castor seeds and bury them in the soil of the pot. Allow the flowers to absorb them naturally. Apply once every six months and no other fertilizers are needed. This fertilizer requires little usage but has a long effective period. It is clean and hygienic and can be applied to flowers such as roses, jasmine, and Milan, and can also be used as base fertilizer.

Bone meal fertilizer

Soak leftover animal bones, poultry bones, fish bones, etc. in water for a day and night, wash off the salt, put them in a pressure cooker and steam them for 20 minutes, then take them out and crush them into bone meal. After the bone meal is composted, mix it with half sandy garden soil to make a nutritionally complete base fertilizer.

Rotten beans

After the beans have rotted, you can bury a few in each flower pot to promote the growth of the plant's roots, stems and leaves.

Rice washing water

Rice washing water contains protein, starch, vitamins, etc. Using it to water flowers will make the flowers more lush.

Onion peels as fertilizer

Onion peels are useful in making soup. When you eat onions at home, collect the peeled onion skins and soak them for a few days. They will become a good flower fertilizer containing a variety of trace elements.

The preparation method is very easy: cut one or two ounces of onion peels into inch-long pieces and soak them in 10 pounds of hot water at about 40℃ to 45℃. After soaking for a week, the onion skin juice can be used as flower fertilizer.

Eggshell Fertilizer

Eggshells are not only rich in organic phosphorus, but also rich in calcium, iron, zinc, magnesium and other trace elements.

First clean the egg whites, dry them in the sun, crush them, and grind them into powder in a mortar before use. It can be used as basal fertilizer, that is, take a little eggshell powder and mix it into the soil when potting, or you can dig a trench and bury it in the soil 2-3 weeks before flowering or fruiting.

Boil egg water, fish water

Use the water used to boil eggs to water the flowers after it has cooled down. The flowers will grow vigorously, become more colorful, and their flowering period will be extended. Using the waste water from fish farming to water flowers can increase soil nutrients and promote flower growth.

Homemade acidic soil

In autumn, collect pine needles, willow leaves, and poplar leaves, and put them into large flowerpots or black plastic bags separately or mixed, with a layer of leaves and a layer of peat soil or garden soil. Add a little ferrous sulfate, soak them in water, seal the lid, and compact it. After a fermentation period in autumn and winter, acidic soil is produced.

Baking soda for watering flowers

Water your flowers with a baking soda solution. When growing flowers at home, when the buds are about to bloom, watering them with a 1/10,000 concentration of baking soda solution will encourage the flowers to bloom luxuriantly.

Watering flowers with beer

The reason why beer has a good effect on growing flowers is that beer contains a large amount of carbon dioxide, which is an indispensable substance for the metabolism of various plants and flowers. Beer also contains nutrients such as sugar, protein, amino acids and phosphates, which are beneficial to the growth of flowers.

The specific method is to mix beer and water in a ratio of 1:50 and then use it.
