Every plant, like other living organisms, requires proper care.

For lush flowering and good growth, flower pots need to be fed. Sweet fertilizer has proven itself very well.

It can be made from sugar or glucose.

Thanks to this feeding, the flowers' photosynthesis processes will normalize, and they will also begin to grow and bloom better.

When is it worth using such fertilizer?

  • Flowering has stopped.
  • The leaves turned yellow.
  • The stems became thin and elongated.
  • The flower began to fade.
  • The flower's growth has stopped.
  • The leaves began to fall.

You can revive the flower by watering it three times with sweet water.

This water can be used to water seedlings that lack light. Dissolve a teaspoon of sugar or 8 ml of 5% glucose in the water. Be sure to follow the proportions.

You can also add yeast, which will strengthen the plants. Also, thanks to yeast, organic matter is quickly processed and nutrients are released.

The plants' root system begins to strengthen. This solution is easy to prepare: take a teaspoon of yeast and sugar and dissolve them in 1 liter of water.

Move the fertilizer to a warm place for half an hour.

For one kilogram of soil you will need 70 ml of yeast fertilizer. Before use, you need to moisten the soil. If the roots of the flowers are damaged, the fertilizer will not correct the situation.
