Why did the potted plant die only a few days after it was bought? Uncover the flower market scam

We often encounter the ones who love flowers the most. The flowers and plants bought in the market die only a few days after returning home. Is it true that they will not be raised? There is still something strange, isn't it? there are enthusiastic journalists secretly visiting the flower market to see what these florists have done.

Flowers and plants are difficult to feed because they have been tampered with by vendors before they are bought and returned.

Trick one: brightener makes the flowers bloom brightly.

In order to make bonsai look good, many vendors use a chemical called "brightener". When buyers visit, vendors spray brightener on it, and the flowers look particularly bright. If you can't sell it, wash off the chemical with water.

Trick two: nutrients speed up the death of flowers

When buyers worry that small pots of plants and flowers cannot be raised, vendors will kindly recommend some "nutrients" and transfer them to be used frequently. But in fact, the so-called nutrients are "plant growth regulators", similar to compound fertilizers, excessive use of nutrients will accelerate plant withering and death.

Trick 3: plastic cushions in flowerpots

In the flower and plant market, in order to save costs, most of the plants are packed in general plastic pots, and some simply wrap the roots in a layer of plastic bags. Once, a consumer ordered several pots of loose-tailed sunflower about 1 meter high. When the reporter was about to fill the flowerpot, he was stopped by the boss. "

Trick four: artificial "dissection" to create fake bonsai

After getting along with each other for a few days, the reporter finally won the trust of the florist and established a friendship with other apprentices, and learned more about it. In general, precious bonsai can only be shaped after years of support and pruning, but today's bonsai are basically rootless bonsai forcibly twisted and carved by manpower, which can be shaped in half a year to a year.

Trick five: inject pigment into local flowers into foreign products

What surprised the reporter most was that after a pigment injection, the ordinary cactus would change from green to yellow, red, and orange. In this way, the ordinary cactus has become a valuable flower and plant produced in Malaysia, and the price has changed from 5 yuan to 30 yuan each.
