Nowadays, growing flowers is becoming more and more common in families, but some people have been worried about how to grow flowers. Let's take a look at the various tricks of family flower cultivation!

water flowers

(1) Water the flowers with leftover tea

Residual tea is used to water flowers, which can not only keep soil moisture, but also supplement plants with nutrients such as nitrogen. But according to the humidity of the flowerpot, water it regularly and properly, instead of pouring the residual tea.

Water the flowers with spoiled milk.

After the milk goes bad, watering the flowers with water is beneficial to the growth of flowers. But it's best to dilute it with more water. Unfermented milk is not suitable for watering flowers, because it will generate a lot of heat during fermentation and will "burn" roots (rotten roots).

③ Water the flowers with cold water.

Watering flowers with cold water can make them flourish and promote their early flowering. If used to water asparagus, its branches and leaves can develop horizontally, short and dense.

4 water the flowers with warm water.

It is cold in winter, so it is advisable to water the flowers with warm water. It is best to keep the water indoors until it is close to room temperature. It is better that the water temperature can reach 35℃ before watering.

⑤ Wash rice and water the flowers.

Frequently watering Milan and other flowers with Taomi water can make them flourish and have bright colors.

fertilize the soil or land

(1) Medical stone fertilizer Sprinkling a layer of medical stone particles in the flowerpot can promote the growth of flowers and prolong the flowering period.

(2) Broken eggshell fertilizer crushes eggshells and embeds them in flowerpots, which is a good fertilizer and can make potted flowers flourish and colorful.

(3) Cook a small amount of soybeans for later use. Each pot of flowers goes through three holes, and 3-5 pieces of cooked soybeans are put in, with a depth of 2-3 cm, without damaging the flower roots, and the soil is covered as usual.

(4) Scrape pig bones and fish bones that are usually discarded, and cast the bottom or surface of the basin.

organic fertilizer

Chemical fertilizer should not be widely used in family flower cultivation. The main fertilizers such as nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium needed for flower cultivation can be collected in daily life.

For example, moldy and inedible waste peanuts, beans, melon seeds, miscellaneous grains, etc. are all nitrogen-containing materials. After fermentation, they can be used as base fertilizer or soaked into solution as topdressing, which can promote the vigorous growth of flowers and trees; Fish bones, broken bones, chicken feathers, eggshells, nails, and human hair are all rich in phosphorus. These wastes are mixed into the old culture soil, added with some water, packed in plastic bags and placed in the corner. After a period of decomposition, they can become excellent organic fertilizers. If these wastes are soaked into solution for topdressing, the domestic potted flowers will have bright colors and rich fruits.

In addition, fermented rice washing water, water replaced by raw bean sprouts, plant ash water, rainwater and wastewater in fish tanks all contain a certain amount of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, which will promote the growth and development of flowers and trees as long as they are used properly.

disease prevention

In early spring, all kinds of flowers will enter a vigorous growth season. At this time, 1% bordeaux solution can be sprayed on the leaves and back of leaves to prevent diseases. The preparation method of 1% bordeaux solution is: 1g copper sulfate, crushed and dissolved in 50ml hot water; Then use 1 g quicklime, crush it with a few drops of water, add 50 ml of water, and filter off the residue; Pour the two solutions into the same container at the same time and stir evenly, and finally get the Bordeaux solution as transparent as the blue sky.

kill off insects

(1) Washing powder: dissolve one tablespoon of washing powder in 4 liters of water and spray flowers and leaves once every two weeks to completely eliminate white flies and bacteria.

(2) Milk: 4 cups of flour and half a cup of milk are mixed into 20 liters of water, stirred, filtered with gauze and sprayed on flowers and leaves to kill ticks and their eggs.

(3) Beer: Pour the beer into the shallow basin under the soil of the flowerpot, and the snail will be drowned if it climbs in.

(4) When ants appear in flowerpots, cigarette butts and tobacco can be soaked in hot water for one or two days. When the water turns dark brown, some water is sprinkled on the stems and leaves, and the rest is diluted and poured into flowerpots to kill ants.

Keep fresh

①

Wild rose is moxibustion with fire at the incision, and then inserted into the bottle.

Qiuju's incision was coated with a little mint crystal.

White orchids are wrapped in wet cloth at night and left uncovered during the day, which can delay the fading time of flowers by 2-3 days.

Peony flowers are soaked in hot water first, and then inserted into cold water.

Camellia inserted with light salt water.

② When going out, take out the vase and put it in the fruit and vegetable box in the refrigerator, which can keep it for a long time. When you come back, take it out and put it in a vase. It can be lifelike.

③ Dissolving aspirin in water can prolong the flowering time of bottled flowers.

Open flowers

Put flower seeds, plant bulbs or cuttings into plastic bags, then put them in the refrigerator and take them out at the right time for planting. The flowering time can be adjusted at will.

Fusu

After winter, potted flowers will freeze outdoors. In this case, the potted flowers can be wrapped in three layers with waste newspapers with strong water absorption. Be careful not to damage the branches and leaves of potted plants when wrapping, and avoid direct sunlight. Let it stand for a day, so that the temperature of potted flowers will gradually increase. After this treatment, the frozen potted flowers can be revived.

deodorise

Indoor flowers will give off an unpleasant smell if fermented liquid is used as fertilizer. If orange peel is put into fertilizer solution, the smell will be eliminated. At the same time, orange peel itself is also a good fertilizer.
