How to make your own fertilizer for growing flowers at home

In our daily lives, we "produce" a lot of materials suitable as flower fertilizers. If we use them reasonably, we don't need to spend money to buy flower fertilizers that may not be suitable for the effect. Next, the editor will introduce to you several methods of DIY flower fertilizer with materials obtained in daily life!

Tea & Rice Water:

This is one of the methods I use most often. Use the leftover tea from making tea (don't make hot tea!) and rice water to water the flowers. This can replenish trace elements and nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium in the soil, promote the development of the root system, and the longer it grows, the better.

Homemade phosphorus (bone) fertilizer:


After each feast, leave the fish bones, chicken bones, etc., soak them in clean water to remove salt and fat (more than 12 hours is recommended), then put them in a pressure cooker and steam for more than 20 minutes, remove them and crush them into bone meal. Composted bone meal mixed with 1:1 sandy soil can become a very good base fertilizer.

Special attention should be paid to thoroughly removing grease and salt, otherwise the soil will become moldy and all previous efforts will be wasted.

Homemade flower fertilizer (humus soil):

This is very simple. Just keep the peels of the fruits you eat at home and the leaves left over from cooking in small buckets and jars, then add 2/3 sand and soil to mix.

Next is the moment to witness the miracle: seal the container with a plastic bag and ferment for a month (summer standard). Once opened, it will become fresh humus soil! It can be used as fertilizer or directly used to grow flowers.

The above is the DIY strategy for growing flowers and making your own flower fertilizer at home. Isn’t it very simple? Are you eager to try it?
