How to grow flowers with plant ash

1. Promote germination

After sowing flowers and plants, covering 1-2 cm with plant ash can effectively increase the temperature of the soil, keep the soil loose, promote the seeds to germinate 7-10 days ahead of time, and the flowers and plants grow healthily and neatly.

2. Speed up rooting

In the process of transplanting, plant ash and organic fertilizer are fully mixed as base fertilizer, or 5-20% plant ash is mixed into nutritious soil, which can increase the absorbability of fertilizer, promote wound healing, and improve the survival rate of flowers and trees transplanting. In the process of transplanting and changing pots, flowers such as orchids cut off rotten roots and spray plant ash on the wounds and roots, which can control rotten roots, promote new roots and restore their growth.

3. Prevent leaves from falling

Spraying 8-15% plant ash extract in the growing season as extra-root fertilizer can improve leaf photosynthesis, prolong leaf growth period, promote beautiful flowers and leaves, and improve ornamental effect.

4. Disease prevention and insect control

Spraying 3-5% plant ash extract can also control aphids, red spiders and other pests.

5. Enhance resistance

Transplanting flowers and trees in arid areas and continuously spraying 3-5% plant ash extract can improve the drought resistance of flowers and trees. Because plant ash contains a large number of free potassium ions, it can reduce the transpiration intensity of leaves, promote the operation of carbohydrates, and enhance the ability of drought resistance and high temperature resistance.

6. Prevent bleeding

Flowers and trees prone to bleeding, such as peaches, figs, grapes, etc., after pruning or changing pots, smear fresh plant ash to control bleeding, prevent wound infection and decay, and promote healing.
