A new trend has emerged among flower growers, which, according to them, ensures long-lasting flowering of violets.

A solution of potassium permanganate is used by many gardeners who grow seedlings. It is an integral component of preparing planting material.

It turned out that a solution based on potassium permanganate is also useful for indoor plants. But it should be used wisely, gardeners warned.

Potassium permanganate is beneficial for violets, but if used incorrectly there is a risk of ruining the soil.

Thus, moderate watering saturates the soil with potassium and manganese, acidifies the soil. In addition, both pathogenic and beneficial microorganisms die.

Therefore, debates among flower growers about the advisability of using this solution continue.

Those who have used this remedy prepare it like this: a few drops of potassium permanganate per glass of water.

The liquid should acquire a light pink hue. Violets are watered with this solution no more than once a month.
