Watering your flowers? Add a drop of this and your plants will explode in growth

Your violets are withering and your monstera doesn't want to put out new leaves? All you need is a bottle from the pharmacy for pennies.

Ammonia in floriculture

We are talking about ammonia. Add 3-4 drops per liter of water and water the plants - the nitrogen in the composition will "revive" even the saddest flower.

But be careful: no more than once a month, otherwise the roots will burn.

Sugar to the rescue

And for flowering plants, there is another life hack - sugar. Dissolve 1 teaspoon in a glass of water and water orchids or roses. Glucose stimulates the formation of buds.

Beer baths

But that's not all. If the leaves are covered in dust and have lost their shine, wipe them with... beer. Dilute it with water 1:1, and your ficus will shine like after an expensive spray.

Hops nourish the leaves and yeast prevents disease.

And for cacti and succulents, use water with added iodine (1 drop per 2 liters). This will protect them from rot and speed up flowering.

Aspirin

Another secret is aspirin. Crush a tablet, dissolve it in a liter of water and spray the plants. Salicylic acid increases immunity and helps to survive the transplant.

And if your flowers suffer from chlorosis (yellow leaves), add rusty nails to the soil. It sounds strange, but the iron from rust is absorbed by the roots better than store-bought fertilizers.

And don't pour out the water from the aquarium! It contains useful bacteria and microelements. Water the flowers once every two weeks - the result will surprise you.

Just don't use water with fish additives - they can be harmful.

Let us remind you that folk recipes do not always have a scientific basis, and therefore do not guarantee a 100% result.
