Don’t throw away the “old loofah pulp”, put it under the flower pot and the plant will be away from black root rot!
In fact, it is not only because many flower plants grow faster in autumn, but we can even use some things on the roadside to grow flowers, and the effect is quite good. Well, Huahua won’t keep you in suspense and will tell you right away which things are so effective in growing flowers!

The first type: loofah pulp

The loofah pulp that Huahua is talking about here is not the one we dig out when we eat it. Because vegetables like loofah gradually stop bearing fruit in autumn, many farmers choose to leave the old loofahs on the trees to dry, so as to prepare the seeds needed to plant loofahs next year. The dry and flat loofah pulp can be used to grow flowers, and the effect is really good.
The specific method is to remove the black seeds inside the dried loofah pulp, because these black seeds will rot in the soil over time, which is not good for plant maintenance. In the next step, we can put the processed loofah pulp at the bottom of the flowerpot. Because the loofah pulp itself is water-absorbent, if you water too much after putting it under the flowerpot, it can also absorb some of the water. And after putting the loofah pulp under the flowerpot, it can also enhance the air permeability of the soil, and the flower plants will naturally grow more and more vigorously.

The second type: Grassroots

In autumn, some weeds on the roadside slowly begin to wither, waiting to revive in the spring of next year. These dry weeds may look inconspicuous, but their roots hidden in the soil can be used to grow flowers. Because grass roots grow in the soil for a long time, they naturally absorb a lot of nutrients. And as a plant, they can absorb fertilizers better.
What we need to do is cut the grass roots into small strips first, then add water and ferment them under the sun. After about half a month of fermentation, it can be used. We can also bury them in the soil of the flowerpot, so that the nutrients of the grass roots will slowly seep into the soil and provide nutrients to the flower roots of the plants.

The third type: fallen leaves

We have known since childhood that autumn is the season of falling leaves, and the roads are sometimes covered with yellow fallen leaves. Very beautiful. We only see the surface of fallen leaves, but we don’t know that they can also be used to grow flowers. Whether they are made into leaf mold or directly put into the soil, they can play a big role.
Before using the fallen leaves, we put them in the sun for a few days to sterilize them. After that, you can add water and put it into the soil to ferment and support leaf mold. It can be used as a substrate for cuttings to provide sufficient nutrients. You can also put it in the soil of a flowerpot and slowly ferment it to provide nutrients. Both methods are good for growing flowers.

<<:  The corn cobs were placed in water and grew into small potted plants in 7 days. The neighbors were amazed when they saw it!

>>:  Have you heard of “Chlorophytum comosum”? Water it and expose it to the sun, and the leaves will grow luxuriantly.
