How to turn a wilting flower into a window sill decoration: this fertilizer works wonders
Houseplants can only be called decoration as long as they are slender, blooming and pleasing to the eye.
In winter, flowers may begin to fade and not always due to lack of moisture. They do not like dry air, they need sunlight, and also a comfortable air temperature.
Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , an expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", an agronomist and landscape designer, told how to prepare a fertilizer to save wilting geraniums.
Gardeners, vegetable growers and florists have long been using some pharmaceutical preparations to care for cultivated plants.
Iodine is, if not first, then far from last on this list.
How to prepare fertilizer
You need to be careful with iodine. Excess of this substance can harm the roots, but if there is not enough, there will be no healthy growth of flowers.
To prepare the fertilizer, you will need one liter of clean, settled (or filtered) water.
Next, you need to add just two drops of pharmacy iodine to this amount and mix the ingredients.
The solution is used for watering and only on damp soil, otherwise the roots can be burned.
The interval between feedings is three weeks.
The additive stimulates bright flowering, and soon the geranium will be covered with lush buds.
But with this method of feeding, it is better to exclude other additives, because an overdose of nutrients can cause the death of the plant.
