Pick up some "black skin" to use for growing flowers, put it in the soil to "increase fertilizer" and breathability, and the plants will not have yellow leaves!

When it comes to fertilizing, many flower lovers want to go to the flower market to buy fertilizers to help the plants grow faster. In fact, there is no need to spend that money, because we can find many small things suitable for growing flowers in our lives. They contain sufficient nutrients and promote good growth. These types of "black skin" are very good fertilizers!

1. Willow bark

Willow bark is naturally the bark that falls off the willow tree. Now it is winter and the willow tree has stopped growing long ago. At this time, we can collect some fallen willow bark and take it home to grow flowers. Willow trees are very resilient and often grow by rivers. They can be said to come to life as soon as they come into contact with water. In fact, this is entirely due to the fact that they contain a substance called salicylic acid, which can accelerate cell division and thus promote growth.

Directions:

Because willow bark grows outdoors, we need to process it before use. Place it in a place with strong sunlight for sterilization and remove excess bacteria and impurities. After treatment, we can soak the willow bark in water for fermentation. After about 2 months, we can take the upper clear liquid to water the flowers. Remember to dilute it with water at a ratio of 50 times when watering the flowers to ensure that the flower roots are not burned.

(ii) Pine bark

When talking about willow bark, we naturally have to mention pine bark. Pine trees are also very common plants. However, in winter, pine needles and pine bark will fall off. Using these things to maintain flower plants can supplement nutrients and enhance soil permeability, thereby allowing plants and flowers to grow more vigorously.

Directions:

Pine bark also needs to be sterilized before use to avoid affecting its subsequent growth. After processing, we can directly put the pine bark at the bottom of the flowerpot, or mix it with the soil. Both methods can help it slowly release nutrients and help the soil enhance air permeability, thereby improving the growth of plants and flowers.

(3) Wood ash

Wood ash looks black, but because it is burned, it contains rich nutrients. We can collect some weeds and fallen leaves and burn them into ash.

Directions:

After the wood ash is made, we can use it to grow flowers. We can spread it on the surface of the soil in the flowerpot to slowly ferment and release nutrients, or we can mix it with the soil to increase drainage and air permeability. Both methods are effective.

These black skins are much more effective than fertilizers for growing flowers. Have you ever used them?
