With the enhancement of environmental awareness and the popularization of green living, more and more families are starting to pay attention to indoor plant cultivation. Plants can not only beautify the environment but also purify the air. To make plants grow better, it is key to supplement nutrients appropriately. Let's share how to make homemade plant nutrient solution to make your plants grow strong and healthy.
Preparing Materials for Homemade Plant Nutrient Solution1. Waste water (such as rice washing water, vegetable washing water, etc.)
2. Rose tea or tea leaves
3. Yeast powder
4. Plastic bottle or glass bottle
5. Stirring rod
Homemade Plant Nutrient Solution Making Steps1. Prepare waste water: Collect waste water from daily life, such as rice washing water, vegetable washing water, etc., ensuring that the water quality is clean and free of oil.
2. Make tea: Put rose tea or tea leaves into a plastic bottle or glass bottle, add an appropriate amount of waste water, seal it, and place it in the sun to steep. It usually takes 3-5 days, shaking the bottle every day to promote the mixture of tea and waste water.
3. Add yeast powder: When the color of the tea becomes darker, add an appropriate amount of yeast powder, usually 1-2 grams per bottle of tea, which can be adjusted according to the actual situation.
4. Seal and ferment: Seal the tea with yeast powder and place it in a warm environment to ferment, usually for 7-10 days. Pay attention during this period to prevent the tea from spoiling.
5. Dilute before use: After fermentation is complete, dilute the plant nutrient solution 50-100 times before watering the plants.
Precautions for Homemade Plant Nutrient Solution1. Choose the right water source: When making plant nutrient solution, choose waste water that is free from pollution and oil to ensure the safety of the plant growth environment.
2. Control the concentration of tea: The concentration of tea should not be too high to avoid harming the plants. Adjust the proportion of tea to waste water according to the actual situation.
3. Pay attention to fermentation time: Too long fermentation may cause the tea to spoil, affecting plant growth, while too short may result in insufficient nutrition. It is recommended to adjust the fermentation time according to the weather and temperature.
4. Avoid direct contact: During the process of making and using the plant nutrient solution, try to avoid direct contact with the skin to prevent allergies.
Homemade plant nutrient solution is a simple, environmentally friendly, and economical method that can provide plants with abundant nutrition. By following the above steps, you can easily make a nutrient solution suitable for plant growth at home. Let's take action to create a healthy and beautiful growing environment for plants!
