Plant ash

Plant ash is the ash burned by firewood and grass, which contains more potash fertilizer. Mainly contains quick-acting potash fertilizer (5%-15%), but also contains phosphorus, calcium, iron, magnesium, sulfur and other effective nutrients.

Potassium can promote nitrogen metabolism and sugar synthesis and transport in plants, make plants grow healthily, enhance the ability of resistance to diseases, pests and natural disasters, and improve drought resistance.

Promote seed germination

When sowing, plant ash can be used to cover the 0.5cm~1cm thickness, which can increase the soil temperature, promote germination, make seedling emergence more neat and grow healthily.

Use as base fertilizer

When changing pots for flowers in spring, plant ash can be used as base fertilizer, and 5% to 20% plant ash can be mixed into the culture soil alive, which can also increase nutrients, promote root development, and reduce the harm of a variety of diseases and insect pests.

Available potash fertilizer

The use of 1% plant ash extract for plant watering is not only a quick-acting potash fertilizer, but also can improve the drought and disease resistance of plants.

Plant disinfection

If in the removal of decaying parts of plants, cuttings or ramet when the wound, you can apply plant ash for disinfection, but also can speed up wound healing.

Matters needing attention

Plant ash can not be mixed with organic farm fertilizer, ammonium nitrogen fertilizer and phosphorus fertilizer, so as not to reduce the fertilizer efficiency of nitrogen and phosphorus. Plant ash is alkaline and can not be used for a long time for some acidic flowers.

Flowers that are not suitable to use plant ash as fertilizer:

Camellias, eight immortal flowers, anchovy grass, pearl orchid, duckweed, rhododendron, gardenia, Michelia, evening incense, paulownia, balsam flowers and other acidic flowers, such as canna, cinnamon, geranium, spring of the four seasons, daisies, asparagus and other flowers in a weak and acidic environment, these flowers should not use plant ash as fertilizer.

Flowers suitable for using plant ash as fertilizer:

Oleander, tulip, magnolia, carnation, elm leaf plum, cactus and other flowers using plant ash as fertilizer has no adverse effect. Rose, peony, pansy, chrysanthemum, daffodils, calendula, hyacinth, evening jade, sweet-scented osmanthus, violets can be used appropriately.

Self-made plant ash fertilizer

Let's take a look at the experience of Sina blog flower friends' self-made plant ash fattening vegetables. The trees next to the house are rich in resources, and there are a lot of dead trees and broken branches lying on the road up the hill.

Most of the dead branches have become brittle under the action of microbes and bagged with their feet.

Special wood-burning gray iron bucket (iron paint bucket), the bottom is deeper can hold more firewood.

After burning, use the prepared soil cover to extinguish to no smoke, the charcoal fire in the absence of oxygen will all become charcoal, after stirring, it will be a good bucket of wood ash soil fertilizer.

As a result of burning wood ash once a month, my vegetable garden has a fixed source of potash fertilizer. although the soil layer on the roof is thin, crops that like potash mainly to harvest underground roots are planted successfully on the roof, thus being planted in large quantities.

Foam boxes are more suitable for growing underground root crops. at present, most foam boxes are grown with potatoes and garlic.

Potatoes grow luxuriantly and cover the whole foam box.

Peeling away the branches and leaves of potatoes, you can see a large amount of ash mixed with civil wood on the roots.

Fifteen garlic plants have a full foam box. It would be nice to harvest 15 garlic at a time.

After the bolting period, the onions begin to grow again, and the supply of wood ash onions is always in constant supply.

Sweet potato, ginger and radish all had a good harvest in the second half of last year.

Harvested ginger and tender ginger

The soil is so shallow that when the radish grows up, it props itself out of the soil by its roots.

In order to solve the problem of sowing and raising seedlings of lettuce (potassium-loving crops) in December, about 2 jin per plant, the harvest is quite abundant.

Sand

Clean river sand is a good helper for flower growers. According to the particle size, river sand is generally divided into fine sand and coarse sand, fine sand is suitable for cutting, coarse sand can be used as the bottom, paving or mixed into the culture soil.

Fine sand cuttage

Fine sand cuttage, take rose cuttage as an example:

Select Lao Nen's appropriate strong rose cuttings that have flowered in the same year, cut at the bottom, leaving 2 bud points, preferably with a heel, and retain 2-4 leaves. Soak and disinfect with carbendazim and disinfect the river sand in advance. Insert the branches around the 1cm in the sand and put them in a larger water container (hit the wall 2.0)

Fine sand sowing

Fine sand is also suitable for sowing.

The use of coarse sand

The sifted coarse sand can be used for bottoming or paving.

(Sina blog Old Luo Luo's Spring)

Coarse sand can also be mixed into the soil and used as culture soil, but the dosage should not be too much. Succulent plants and cactus plants are more adapted to the granular environment, so they can be dominated by particles.

For general foliage plants, the ratio can be as follows:

5 parts of peat soil, 3 parts of garden soil, 2 parts of river sand, mixed with a small amount of organic fertilizer.

The culture soil of cactus flowers (including cactus, cactus, mountain shadow boxing, etc.) can be divided into 2 humus soil, 3 garden soil, 4 coarse sand and 1 vermiculite.

3 parts of peat, 3 parts of coarse sand and 4 parts of particles can be used as culture soil for succulent plants.

Sawdust

Sawdust is pure organic matter, very loose and light in texture. It is very good for growing flowers, and it is generally better to use it after it is mature.

Sawdust pressing

Sawdust can be used as a bandaging substrate for high branches of flowers and trees such as rhododendron, camellia, sweet-scented osmanthus and so on. In the rainy season, choose vigorous branches, peel them in a ring about 10-15cm from the top, wrap them in a plastic bag containing wet sawdust and mountain mud, tie them tightly at both ends, and take root from February to March.

Sawdust cutting

Sawdust can be used as the rooting substrate for roses, gardenia, pomegranates and other flower cuttings, but after the plants take root and survive, the sawdust that can be connected to the block can be moved into the basin soil together, so as not to hurt the roots and save the process of transplanting seedlings.

And a lot of good stuff.

Moss can be used in the shop of orchids and magnolia plants, and many flower friends who make miniature bonsai use moss to do the shop.

There is a lot of moss in life.

Cinder, air permeability is very good, the shop surface is good for cultivation soil.
