I began to throw violets, grown not on a grade. And life has become easier
Today let's talk about a controversial topic - disposing of houseplants. On the Internet, a phenomenon called loud and clear: "trash". It florists send plants, for whatever reasons, have become superfluous.
And some fans of the green the inhabitants sill very thought of such behavior is disgusting and thought: "How is it possible, they are also living", "it would be better given to another" etc. And I fully understand, and for a year in my trash can fly senpoliy outlet. Let me explain why.
I noticed that the passion for potted plants takes place in several stages.
The first love
At the very first, that I personally have been left far behind, Florist carries his house everything. Today - otrostochek Chlorophytum from a friend, tomorrow - the dead almost pelargonium that someone handed to the access door.
Enjoys the kind of houseplant, given in the order continues to swell the ranks of the pots. Believes that the soil marked "for orchids" really suited for orchids, roses can be fed only fertilizer "for the roses", and violet, respectively, "For the violets."
Most people at this point and stop, that in general, is good.
Florist begins to suspect something
Background: human desire to study / learn something new and love for houseplants. The successful combination of qualities leads to the fact that the consumer turns into Florist Florist amateur or even professional-collector.
From my own experience I realized that I actually get important knowledge can only be in communion with successful practices. For each specific type of plant. No advice neighbor who does and raises flowers in a bucket of mayonnaise, and even the basic information from the Internet sites are often far from the truth.
Learning how to take care of basic plants, a person begins to search for specific types, which he likes. Further more. The search for new varieties. So I happened to violets, which are now in question.
Why did I throw violets
I try to do it so I chose the indoor plants, they are not - me. I try to keep control of their numbers and to easily get rid of those that do not like or simply ceased to please.
For example. By purchasing a high-quality violet leaf, I got 5 children. And only 2 of them and then flourished for grade 1 and I got a wonderful specimen. Such blunders on fialochnom language called "sports". So, I now all 5 to raise? No, if you please! I appreciate your time and effort.
In anticipating the objection:
- No, I do not mind! I do not endow the plant soul or mind, as do some growers. I do not see anything in them like children or pets. This is hell, just plant.
- I have every right to dispose of the results of their labor and time. Wanted to throw - threw.
- I never specifically looking for those who will take. I suggest friend at work - everything. I do not have - throw. I, again, do not want to spend their thoughts and time to search for the owner.
And the most important thing. Sometimes much more humane throw violet than to give an outlet in the hands of a person who is not bothering matters farming. I had this experience, then another, and pestered with questions: "What kind of crap you gave me, and ceased to bloom, and the curve of the whole". So let them live the mess.
