The growth of flowers is inseparable from the supply of fertilizers, but soil fertility plays a very important role in the growth of flowers to a certain extent. Flower cultivation is always inseparable from fertilization, so some small methods should be adopted to improve soil fertility. So, let’s take a look at these small ways to improve the soil!
1. Egg shells
Eggs are very common in our daily consumption. Many people choose to throw away the eggshells directly after eating. Boiled eggshells also work well in improving the soil. This is a great way to improve soil quality with eggshells!
Crush the eggshells
Bury or stir into the soil
First wash the eggshells with water, then place them in a ventilated place to dry. Once the eggshells are dry, tools are used to crush, bury or stir the eggshells into the soil. Be sure to wash before use. If left untreated, egg whites and other substances can remain in the shells and bacteria can multiply, which can affect plant roots and attract flying insects.
2. Lime
When talking about lime, the first thing most people think of is its application in construction. In fact, lime also has certain effects on soil. We all know that lime is an alkaline substance.
Farmers are spreading lime
Therefore, lime plays a very important role in cultivating some flowers that do not like acidic soil. Due to the alkalinity of lime, it can adjust and neutralize the acidity and alkalinity of the soil, thereby promoting better plant growth, adjusting acidity and calcium, and increasing production.
3. Banana peel
After eating a banana, the final result of the banana peel is to be thrown into the trash can, but everyone still doesn’t know that banana peels have many wonderful uses! Flowers grown on banana peels grow well.
Cut the banana peel into small pieces
The implementation method is also very simple. Just cut the banana peel into small pieces and bury it in the soil, and it will be converted into some substances that are beneficial to beneficial microorganisms to promote the reproduction of these beneficial microorganisms.
Buried in the soil
will provide the soil with some very beneficial trace elements, such as potassium, calcium, sodium, magnesium and other elements, which are very useful!
4. Natural organic fertilizers
Now more and more people like pure natural things, organic vegetables, organic rice and so on. Many things advocate pure nature, and the same goes for flowers.
Chicken and duck manure

Farmers are fertilizing
For example: chicken and duck manure, cattle and sheep manure, earthworm manure, horse manure, etc., with the help of some natural organic materials, they can play the role of natural fertilizers and make the soil more fertile.
5. Soil covering
It is difficult to avoid some weeds in flower cultivation. At this moment, we must not relent. We must get rid of them because these weeds will compete with the plants we raise for nutrients and cause nutrients to be lost. Covering the soil with a layer of something can be a great solution to this problem and will effectively suppress the appearance of weeds.
Mulch covering
Grass-proof cloth covering and weeding
However, it should be noted that no matter what mulch is used, the basin soil should be kept clean and should be cleaned daily to prevent bacterial growth and unnecessary pests.
6. Tea residue
Many friends may not know that tea residue can be used as a natural scarifier for flower cultivation. From now on, leftover tea leaves and overnight tea should not be wasted. It is best applied to flower maintenance. This is a good flower cultivation material.
tea residue
This method is also very simple. Pour unused tea residues into the soil, and then bury the tea residues with the soil. After the tea residue is slowly fermented, it can be used to cultivate plants. Not only does this increase the fertility of the soil, but it also makes the soil looser and has more significant drainage capabilities.

After the tea residue is fermented
Remember, do not plant flowers before the tea residue is fermented.The fermentation process generates a lot of heat, which can cause damage to the roots of the flowers that are buried beneath the soil.
The above are 6 ways to make the soil more fertile. Turning domestic waste into treasure is not only beneficial to environmental sanitation, but also helps our flowers grow better. It really accomplishes multiple things with one stone. Quickly use the above methods to improve the soil at home.
