6 kinds of delicious soil fertilizers are available right at your doorstep, so don’t spend money to buy soil!

Earthworm Soil

Earthworm soil can be said to be the king of fertile soil. It contains comprehensive nutrients of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, and it is also breathable. If you can get earthworm soil, you don’t have to worry about anything not growing well! Huahua used to be quite disgusted with earthworms, but for the flowers at home, she gave it a try

Method 1: Find earthworm soil outdoors

According to Huahua's experience, there are more earthworms in moist soil. Every time Huahua goes back to her hometown, she takes a walk around the house. As long as there are earthworms or earthworm holes, the soil is good, so she will dig some and plant flowers!

Another thing is to look for earthworm manure. There are some small lumps of soil on the soil surface, which are probably earthworm manure. There is no odor and it is very clean. Earthworms eat soil and excrete soil. Hurry up and dig it up and take it home~

Method 2: Make your own earthworm soil

Courageous flower lovers can dig some earthworms and take them home, find some soil to raise the earthworms, cover them with a lid, and without feeding them, you can harvest ready-made earthworm soil after 2 months!

Be careful not to put earthworms in flower pots, because the movement of earthworms may damage the flower roots; flower lovers who can’t find earthworms can go to a fishing tackle store and buy some bait earthworms, which are also very cheap!

Tea soil

The tea leaves residue can be used to grow flowers, but many flower lovers dare not use too much of it, fearing that the tea leaves are too alkaline. In fact, the alkalinity of tea leaves that have been soaked in water has been reduced a lot and tends to be neutral. To be on the safe side, we just need to ferment the tea leaves!

Method: Retting

After brewing tea, add water and boil the tea leaves to make them softer. During this process, you can add a few eggs or quail eggs and cook tea eggs at the same time.

After boiling, filter out the tea leaves, rinse them with clean water again and mix them into the soil. Seal it and let it ferment for about 20 days. Then you can use it to grow flowers!

Fallen flowers and leaves

The leaf mold that Huahua often talks about can be made by collecting pine needles and fallen leaves outside. However, outdoor leaves carry bacteria and insect eggs, so everyone should pay attention to disinfection when making the soil.

The flowers and branches trimmed at home can also be fermented into leaf mold, which is safer!

Method: Bury and ferment

Find an open space and dig a hole. Bury a mixture of rotten leaves and dead flowers in the pit with garden soil. Don't worry about it and they will be cooked in a month. After digging them out, expose them to the sun for 2-3 days. Be sure to spray them with carbendazim for sterilization, or put a few mothballs in them, and just take a little out when you need them.

Peel soil

Everyone must have made fruit peel enzymes. Flowers love to drink them the most. Have you tried fruit peel soil? It has the same nutrition, and you can make it at home without any odor!

Method: Soil fermentation

1. Cut the remaining half watermelon rind into small pieces.

2. Find a big and thick plastic bag, put a layer of soil at the bottom, then watermelon rind, and then another layer of soil...

3. After all the melon rinds are put away, cover the top with a layer of soil. Don't mess it up. This will allow the melons to ferment faster and better. Finally, tie the bag. It will take 1-2 months to ferment at the current temperature.

Soybean and grain soil

There are often expired grains at home, such as soybeans, corn kernels, millet, etc. Don’t throw them away after they expire. They ferment quickly, are highly nutritious, and can help flowers bloom more and more beautifully.

Method: Cook and ferment the soil

1. Cook the spoiled grains first, which can kill bacteria (such as mold) and accelerate their decay.

2. Find a large container, bury the cooked grains with soil, tie the opening with a sack or plastic bag, and let it ferment for 1-2 months before use.

In addition to fermenting the soil, you can also put cooked grains in the soil in the pot. Because they are still decomposed, they should be kept away from the roots of the flowers and covered with soil.

Fish, shrimp, meat and soil

Not only roses like to eat fish and meat, many flowers like them as well. However, their tolerance is weak and they need to be fermented. Vegetable fertilizer is very good phosphorus and nitrogen fertilizer, but it has a bad smell when fermented. It is best to ferment it into nutrient soil, which has much less smell.

Method: Mix the soil and ferment it

1. Find a foam box, spread a layer of soil first, spread the fish entrails, shrimp shells, and minced meat on the soil, then cover it with soil, cover it with a foam lid, poke a few holes with chopsticks, and place it in a remote place. Let it ferment for 2-3 months.

2. After fermentation, take it out and expose it to the sun for a while, or spray some carbendazim to disinfect and sterilize, which is safer! After processing, it is not only good for planting flowers, but also for planting fruit trees and vegetables.
