Pure poison, not fertilizer: this is what you should not fertilize your houseplants with
Experienced gardeners have criticized one popular fertilizer for indoor plants.
Many believed that it was of great benefit, but it turned out that it did more harm.
It is no secret that gardeners are leaning towards natural remedies that protect against pests and provide plants with nutrition. In addition, they also save a lot of money.
Manure is used not only in the garden and vegetable garden, but also added to the soil for indoor plants. But the fertilizer is dangerous, because it can burn young roots and kill flowers.
Coffee grounds and tea leaves are popular among experienced gardeners. It is believed that this is also an excellent fertilizer for plants.
But some owners of “green pets” pour drinks into the pot, to which they added sugar, syrups, liqueur and other ingredients to improve the taste.
Such feeding will not bring any particular benefit, but will attract midges and other uninvited "guests", including cockroaches or ants. Therefore, flowers can be fertilized with coffee or tea, but the drink should not contain sugar, dyes, flavors and similar components.
