Auntie Li raises "Epipremnum aureum"
As the 'air purification master' in the indoor green plant world, Epipremnum aureum is deeply loved for its super strong vitality and vigorous growth. However, ordinary maintenance often fails to achieve the effect of full pot. The unique rice washing water maintenance method created by the experienced flower enthusiast Auntie Li allows Epipremnum aureum to cover the pot in just 30 days, which is far more effective than conventional fertilizers.
Advantages of Rice Washing Water for the Growth of Epipremnum aureum
The milky white liquid after washing rice is rich in starch, vitamins, and mineral elements, which is converted into natural nitrogen fertilizer after scientific fermentation. The nitrogen content is as high as 0.5%-1%, and the proportion of phosphorus and potassium elements is 0.1%-0.3%, perfectly fitting the growth needs of Epipremnum aureum leaves. Compared with chemical fertilizers, rice washing water can better maintain the balance of soil microorganisms and avoid the problem of soil compaction.
Golden Ratio Fermentation Method
Take a 2L plastic bottle, fill it with 800ml of rice washing water, add 200ml of chopped orange peel (to accelerate fermentation and reduce odor), and leave 20% space to prevent expansion. Ferment in a 25-30℃ environment for 15 days, and open the lid every 3 days to release gas. Successfully fermented liquid is light yellow and has a wine lees smell as a qualified standard.
Scientific Watering Scheme
Dilute with water at a ratio of 1:50, pour 200ml slowly along the edge of the pot every Tuesday morning. In winter, change to a ratio of 1:80, and combine with loosening the soil to improve absorption efficiency. For newly transplanted seedlings, it is recommended to use a 1:100 concentration to adapt, and then gradually increase the concentration after 3 weeks.

Epipremnum aureum Full Pot Combination Maintenance Method
Light and Shadow Control Strategy
Receive 4 hours of scattered light (10000-15000Lux) daily, use a 40% shading rate of gauze to filter direct light. Rotate the pot 180° every 10 days to ensure even lighting of the plant. It is recommended to set the blue-red light ratio of LED plant growth lights to 7:3, and supplement for 2 hours daily.
Intelligent Water Management
In spring and summer, use the 'top layer drying method', water thoroughly when the top 2cm of soil is dry; in winter, implement the 'weight monitoring method', water when the pot is 1/3 lighter. Combined with a layer of ceramic stones on the surface, it can increase humidity by 15% and prevent root rot.
Advanced Maintenance Plan
Add banana peel fermentation liquid (potassium supplement) every month, and wipe the leaves with beer (diluted 1:10) to make the leaves 40% thicker. Spray garlic water (3 cloves of garlic/500ml of water) during the plum rain season to prevent leaf spot disease, achieving disease-free growth throughout the year.
Practice data shows that the leaves of Epipremnum aureum continuously maintained with rice washing water have a 2.3 times higher density, and the growth rate of aerial roots accelerates by 60%. This ecological maintenance method not only saves 90% of the cost but also creates a recycling home green plant system.
