"Christmas cactus" likes these "4 kinds" of fertilizers the most. The leaves will sprout several more sections and the flower buds will keep popping up.

1. Waste oil from range hoods

I often hear people say that the waste oil in the range hood should not be thrown away, but can be saved and used as fertilizer for flowers. There are many nutrients in waste oil, which Christmas cactus can absorb very well. We can save the waste oil in our lives to make the plants grow better. The method of use is also very simple. Just scoop a spoonful of waste oil and bury it in the soil. It is best to bury the fertilizer away from the roots of the Christmas cactus to avoid the fertilizer burning the roots of the plant.

2. Chinese medicine residue

Chinese medicine residue is also very suitable as fertilizer for Christmas cactus. Chinese medicine is basically herbal plants, and after being cooked, it will be easier for Christmas cactus to absorb. Therefore, if we have Chinese medicine residue at home, we must not throw it away after use. It is also a good idea to save it for Christmas cactus as fertilizer. Dry the Chinese medicine residue in advance, sterilize and disinfect it, and then bury it in the soil in batches.

3. Fruit peels and vegetable leaves

The leftover rotten vegetable leaves and fruit peels are very suitable for use as fertilizers for plants. If you want to use this kind of thing to fertilize Christmas cactus, you must first seal and ferment it for a period of time before diluting it and watering the plants. The absorption effect is also very good. Fruit peels and leaves are rich in vitamins and other fiber, which can be used on plants to promote branch growth. In particular, the vitamin C they contain can promote the growth of Christmas cactus!

4. Animal remains

If you usually eat fish or other animals, you can leave the meat from their bones, or the remaining animal hair, all of which can be used as fertilizer for Christmas cactus, but the process is a bit disgusting and inconvenient. If you want to use this kind of fertilizer, the easiest way is to make bone powder. Just crush the bones of animals and plants and use it.
