Spray brightener before selling flowers

Some florists spray brighteners on the leaves and petals before they go on sale, which makes the leaves look bright and green, the petals more delicate and beautiful, and the florist has lights in the shop, which undoubtedly stimulates your desire to buy.

If you want to buy, first change the soil after going home, loess can not be used alone, need to be mixed with peat soil, rotten leaf soil, sand and other substrates to improve nutrition, enhance water permeability and air permeability.

Third, the flower is injected with pigment to act as a new variety

Some florists will pigment some flowers, and the ordinary cactus has changed from green to colorful, and the ordinary cactus has become a foreign precious flower, and the price has also changed from a few yuan to dozens of yuan each, and the plants are extremely perishable after being injected with chemicals.

For many large potted plants, florists put a lot of foam, paper shells and even plastic bags at the bottom of flowerpots in order to save costs and reduce weight. the bigger and better flowerpots are, the more fillers are. This practice is not conducive to the growth of flowers, blocking the outlet. It will rot the plant root system, which is not conducive to growth.
