Houseplants should be watered with soft, settled water.
If this rule is ignored and flowers are watered with water containing lime and chlorine, the leaves will soon begin to wither and turn yellow, and a white coating will appear on the soil. In this case, it is important to take timely measures to save the plants.
For example, once a month during watering, you should use citric acid, which will prevent plaque from appearing and improve the condition of the plants.
It is important not to overdo it with the additional product.
Experts note that for 5 liters of clean and settled water it is enough to take just a quarter teaspoon of this product.
However, you should not let such a preparation sit for a long time, but it is important to use the solution immediately after preparation.
In addition, it is necessary to control the amount of watering and the frequency of fertilization.
It is important to remember that it is advisable to reduce them during the winter period.
