How to fertilize spathiphyllum with yeast so that new leaves grow. Nothing worse than expensive fertilizers, the result
Fiery fireworks, fellow flower growers! Today on the agenda is a recipe for a valuable feeding of spathiphyllum with ordinary dry yeast from a bag. If you do it regularly, the plant will expand more and more leaves, regardless of the humidity of the air and the introduction of other dressings.
Why yeast is good as a top dressing for "Women's Happiness"
Spathiphyllum grows naturally in all kinds of humid places. He likes the bank by the stream and the tropical swamp. In such conditions, the earth contains a lot of organic matter: plant roots or fallen leaves are constantly dying. Under the influence of moisture and the work of soil microorganisms, there is a constant production of a large amount of organic nutrients.
Comrades, you can try to create conditions for the fiefdom of spathiphyllum in his pot. We only need to populate the soil with living microflora, which will also intensively process the soil and give "Women's happiness" organic nutrition.
And its large volumes are usual for spathiphyllum. It will begin to grow faster, releasing new leaves and expanding over the area of the pot.To create microflora, the easiest way is to use ordinary dry yeast, which is sold in bags and is in the house of every housewife. This is a beneficial yeast that will become factory workers to supply organics to a houseplant.
Yeast has another underrated plus. Yeast fungi, multiplying in the soil, displace harmful fungi. Including molds and rot-causing ones. It is very important, given that spathiphyllum must be watered often and wet soil can provoke root rot.
How to feed spathiphyllum with yeast: simple and effective
Comrades, it is better to take fresh baker's yeast - from only an open bag.
- The fertilizer formula is as simple as possible: 1 g of dry yeast and 2 tablespoons of sugar are needed for 1 liter of warm water.
- Stir the ingredients. Place the fertilizer workpiece in a warm place: for example, near a radiator or next to a stove. Cover the container with a towel or paper.
Leave it on for 3 hours. During this time, the yeast is activated. And they will begin to multiply at the expense of sugar. Everything is the same as when making dough.
- Stir again.
- Dilute the yeast infusion 1: 5. I do it by eye.
- Pour the spathiphyllum over damp soil, grabbing both the edges and center of the pot. Until water flows out of the drain holes. This will mean that the yeast has got to all corners of the soil - what you need!
Leftovers can be watered on other plants that like organic feeding. For example, begonias, roses, anthurium. In the summer, boldly feed garden and horticultural crops with yeast.
For top dressing to work for a long time, do not allow the soil to dry out in a pot with spathiphyllum. Keep it warm because yeast is sensitive to low temperatures. You can repeat feeding no more than 1 time per month. The first results are usually noticeable after 2-4 weeks - I judge from my own experience and the experience of friends. New leaves begin to unfold, new shoots appear on the sides.
