The harm of watering flowers with milk

What are the harms of watering flowers with milk?

Root Burn

Using milk to water the plants can burn the roots, which is really a big hazard. Because milk contains a large amount of protein, which cannot be directly absorbed by flowers and needs to be fermented. If you use the milk to water the flowers without fermenting it, the milk will ferment in the flowerpot, which will result in root burn.

Soil compaction

Using milk to water flowers for a long time will actually cause the soil to become compacted.

If you use milk to water the flowers for a long time, a white film will form on the entire surface of the soil. It will affect the air exchange of the soil and suffocate the roots due to lack of nutrients. Secondly, it will affect the penetration of water. The water cannot be poured thoroughly because the lower layer is too dry and the surface is relatively moist.

smell

Use milk to water the flowers, because milk will ferment. During the fermentation process, you will find that it will emit some bad smell, which is very unpleasant. It can also easily cause the soil to mold and attract small insects.

How to water flowers with milk

In fact, watering flowers with milk is a good thing, but it needs to be processed beforehand. Specifically, it needs to be fermented and diluted beforehand. Also, you cannot use milk for watering for a long time, as it will affect the properties of the soil.

By fermenting the milk in advance, many substances can be converted into substances that can be absorbed by plants, and there is no need to worry about heat and burning roots when watering the flowers, or the production of odors.
