I water "Women's Happiness" with hydrogen peroxide 4 times during the fall / winter. It grows quickly and blooms incessantly. I write a way
Fiery fireworks, fellow flower growers! Do you want to admire the magnificent spathiphyllum ("Women's happiness") all year round? I suggest you try my life hack. A friend shared it with me out of the kindness of her heart, and I am still grateful to her. Although we don't communicate anymore) And I'll tell you exactly in what proportion to prepare the life-giving solution.
They say that spathiphyllum with its snow-white-green sails brings happiness to the fair sex in relationships with Men and even helps them become a mother. Whether this is true or not - I do not know (and before the flower appeared in my house, I did not complain about her personal life).
But I know for sure that spathiphyllum is able to actively grow and even bloom all year round. And in this he will be helped by such an affordable product as hydrogen peroxide..
Why do you need hydrogen peroxide "Women's happiness" and it is in the cold season
Spathiphyllum has one small but important feature. The success of cultivating "Women's Happiness" depends on the knowledge of which 98% depends. Spathiphyllum is a true water lover from nature, a kind of concentration of indoor plants' love for moisture. Not getting enough water, "Woman's Happiness" becomes a dry-tipped sorrow and turns into three feathers from a pot.
I consider it a very important and remarkable fact, comrades, that in winter spathiphyllum has to be watered more often than in summer. The root of the problem is in the heating, which dries up the air of the apartments and the soil in the pot at the same time.
Frequent watering is always the risk of root rot. In spathiphyllum, geranium, violets - it doesn't matter. Even in a pot with good drainage and holes in the bottom to drain moisture, bacteria and fungi can grow (modestly let me remind you that they cause root rot), if the soil is constantly in a little damp condition.
It was then that she came to the rescue - Hydrogen Peroxide. Even with a capital letter I will write - in fact, an assistant:
- It is well known that it is peroxide that we are looking for when scratched. She is an excellent disinfectant that neutralizes harmful bacteria and fungi. What's on the skin, what's in the pot!
- Peroxide is an airy substance in the literal sense of the word. Its chemical formula is H2O2. Once in the pot, it saturates the soil with oxygen. Molecules loosen the soil from the inside, so the effect is long-lasting: oxygen goes further to the roots more easily.
Interesting fact: The looser the soil, the more effective any root dressing. Nutrients easily reach the underground heart of the flower.
Bingo! Spathiphyllum is healthy, ready to grow new tufts of emerald leaves and even bloom. Whether "Women's Happiness" will release a white sail or not depends on the lighting. In winter, there is very little sun, so to stimulate the ejection of buds for spathiphyllum, it is worth finding a worthy place on a well-lit window.
How to properly water spathiphyllum with hydrogen peroxide
1. We buy or find 3% hydrogen peroxide in our home chest.
2. We are preparing settled and warm water. Settled down - because water immediately from the tap mercilessly brines the soil, and lime only worsens the structure of the soil. It prevents the earth from breathing. Warm - because cold watering is very stressful for the plant.
On a note: Watering with water around 40-50 ° C will further stimulate growth and flowering. I think you can heat up the water once a month. Moreover, the effect of the procedure is amazing!
3. We make a solution: half a teaspoon of peroxide in 1 liter of water. Mix well and water the spathiphyllum when watering time comes.
As you can see - nothing complicated! I treat "Women's Happiness" with a solution of peroxide every "cold" month, and the flower grows like restless.
