Is it good to use rice water to water flowers? The correct way to water flowers

1. Is it good to water the flowers?

Rice water contains various trace elements, such as nitrogen and phosphorus, as well as protein and other nutrients needed for flower growth. Therefore, it is a good choice to water flowers and is very beneficial to the growth and development of plants. If used correctly, it can act as an organic fertilizer, allowing plants to bloom better and their branches and leaves to grow more luxuriantly. However, you cannot use rice water directly to water the flowers. It must be fully fermented first before it can be used to water the flowers.

2. Correct Method

1. Fermentation: prepare a larger bottle, put the prepared rice water into it, then seal the bottle with a lid and place it in the sun. During the fermentation process, you can loosen the lid appropriately because excess gas will be produced inside. Wait for about a week, and when the water in the bottle becomes clear, you can use it. If you are worried that the fermented rice water will have an odor, you can also add some chopped orange peel into it.

2. Dilution: After fermentation, you cannot water the flowers directly. You need to dilute rice water and clean water in a ratio of 1:4. If you water the flowers directly, it is likely to burn the roots of the plants.

3. Notes

The frequency of watering the flowers should not be too frequent, usually 1-2 times a month is enough. If it is used frequently to water flowers, it will have a counterproductive effect.
