Which potted plants are suitable for watering with rice water? The correct way to water orchids

1. Which potted plants are suitable for watering?

After fermentation, rice water will contain acidic substances, so it is very suitable for watering plants that like acid, which can help them grow well. It is suitable for watering potted plants such as camellia, gardenia, jasmine, azalea, Milan, green radish, money tree, white calla lily, osmanthus, etc. It can not only make them grow vigorously, but also promote their flowering, and prevent the plants from being infected with chlorosis.

There are also many plants that are not suitable for watering with rice water, such as cactus, prickly pear, maidenhair fern, hyacinth and hibiscus. If you water it, it will seriously affect its normal growth and may even burn its roots. Therefore, before watering the flowers, you should first understand whether the plants prefer acidity or alkalinity. If they prefer alkalinity, then do not use rice water.

2. The correct way to water orchids

Using rice water to water orchids also requires fermentation. First put the rice water into a bottle, seal it and place it in the sun to ferment. It can be used after it is fermented. When watering orchids, you need to dilute it with water and then pour it into the potting soil. If the flowers are killed by watering, it means that the water was used without being fermented. If the rice water is not fermented well before use, the heat generated by it will burn the orchid roots, causing it to wither and die.
