How to feed violets for lush color: two penny products at once

Of all houseplants, violets are considered the most capricious. It is quite possible that there are more capricious flowers, but violets are more common, and almost everyone likes them.

But when it turns out that someone’s plant blooms constantly and almost all year round, gardeners get upset.

Before you start feeding, you need to find out the reason why the violets refuse to bloom.

Why don't violets bloom?

There are several reasons, but all of them are standard and obvious. These flowers are painfully affected by improper watering, improper planting and transplanting, poor lighting and non-compliance with temperature and air humidity conditions.

It is quite possible that by eliminating these shortcomings, you can expect your violets to bloom soon.

And even if the flowers grew in normal conditions, fertilizing will speed up flowering.

Feeding violets

1. The simplest option, available to everyone, is iodine solution.

To prepare, dissolve 1 drop of iodine in 3 liters of settled water. Use 3-4 times per season.

2. A slightly more complex fertilizer can be prepared from wood ash. It serves as a source of phosphorus and potassium, improves the condition of the soil, and helps fight insect pests.

For preparation, 1 tbsp of ash per 1 liter of water is enough. Infuse for a day and use for watering once every 2 weeks.
