10 years of flower-growing experience, telling you the secret of growing flowers that never die

Mix seedlings before breeding

operate:

First, soak the seeds to be sown in warm water at a temperature of about 35 degrees for 24 hours, then take out the seeds, wrap them in dry cloth and squeeze out the water on the outside; then mix the seeds with some clean cooking oil (such as soybean oil, rapeseed oil and sesame oil, etc.), and then you can sow them as usual.

Don't underestimate this small trick. It can make seeds that are difficult to germinate germinate about 20 days earlier, and the sprouts will be strong and grow fast. In addition, it also has a very good effect on improving the germination rate.

Watering flowers with beer kills two birds with one stone

operate:

Prepare a bottle of beer, pour out some and add water, the ratio is 6 water to 1 beer, spray the plants once, try to spray all parts. Check it carefully the next day. If the bug turns reddish-brown and falls off when touched, it is definitely dead.

If there are still some alive, spray them again. Generally, the problem can be basically solved after spraying three times in a row. If you have snails, you can pour beer into a shallow basin under the soil in the flowerpot. The snails will be drowned when they crawl in.

Soapy water promotes daffodil flowering

Narcissus contains a alkaloid that can promote the good growth and development of plants. Soapy water is an alkaline solution. When daffodils inhale it, the plant alkaloids in their bodies increase, which can quickly convert vegetative growth into reproductive growth. In this way, an appropriate amount of soapy water can promote flowering.

How to keep cuttings moisturized

operate:

Cut off the leaves of the branch, leaving the petiole, and insert it from the flowering end of the cucumber. This will not only keep the cuttings moist, but also prevent them from rotting (because there is an ingredient in cucumbers that can kill bacteria). As long as the cucumber does not rot, the cuttings are fine. No matter how far away it is, you can bring it home and it will survive as you wish.

Broken bricks and tiles make flowers more colorful

Using broken bricks and tiles to grow flowers has the advantages of air permeability, water retention and fertilizer retention, which can make the flowers more numerous, bigger and last longer.

Operation: Break the waste bricks and tiles into pieces with a diameter of about 0.2-0.5 cm. When planting flowers, place the smaller and powdered ones near the roots of the plants, and place the larger pieces at the bottom of the pot or other locations. Other methods are the same as planting with soil.

Leave some grass in the pot, it's good for flowers and trees in winter

In winter, leave three or four grasses in the flowerpot. When watering, just look at the condition of the grass. If the grass is still green and upright, don't water it; if the grass is wilted and lifeless, water it immediately.

Old loofah makes your leaves green and flowers beautiful

operate:

Pick the old loofah, wash it and dry it. When repotting flowers, changing soil or putting them in pots, cut them into small pieces of about 5 cm. Place a layer of loofah stems at 1/3 of the bottom soil of the pot, fill with soil on top, then place another layer at 2/3 of the bottom soil, add more soil, and then you can plant normally.

This method can effectively improve the potting soil, making it loose and not compacted. Moreover, the loofah fibers and seeds slowly decompose in the potting soil and are a good long-acting nitrogen fertilizer, so the potted flowers all have green leaves and beautiful flowers.
