These “3 kinds” of inconspicuous waste materials are all “treasures” that can make any flower grow vigorously!

1. Willow Bark

In winter, many trees begin to shed their leaves and peel. Willow trees are of course no exception at this time. If we take a walk along the roadside, we will find a lot of fallen willow bark on the ground. Don’t be fooled by the black bark of the willow, it can have a good effect when used to grow flowers.

When using willow bark to grow flowers, we must first put it in a pot and boil it until it is soft. This way, the nutrients in the willow bark can be better released under high temperature. After boiling, we can pour the willow bark into a container together with water to ferment. It can be used after about a month. The salicylic acid contained in the willow bark solution can promote the growth of the plants.

2. Worm castings

The nutrient content in earthworm castings is sufficient, and it is most suitable for supplementing nutrients for plants and flowers. Earthworms live in the soil for a long time and help loosen the soil, so natural earthworm castings can have good effects after use.

We can mix earthworm manure directly with soil, but before use it needs to be exposed to the sun so that the impurities and bacteria in the earthworm manure can be removed. After that, it will slowly ferment in the soil to release more sufficient nutrients.

3. Peanut Shells

Dried fruits are a must-have in every household, and peanuts are no exception. However, we usually throw away the peanut shells directly. But in fact, using them to grow flowers can enhance the looseness and air permeability of the soil, thereby helping the plants and flowers to better absorb nutrients and increase their growth rate.

When using peanut shells to grow flowers, remember to use original flavor, otherwise some of the seasonings contained in them can easily affect the growth of the plants. We can mix peanut shells with soil or put them at the bottom of flower pots. You can crush the peanut shells in advance, which will make it more convenient to use.

Growing flowers is not easy, but if we can find tips and methods from life, it will become easy. I wonder if everyone has used these things?
