Pest control, germination, anti-corrosion...all kinds of flower-growing problems can be solved with just one clove of garlic

Promote germination

Steps:

1. Peel and mash the garlic, and mix it with cold boiled water in a ratio of 1:3.

2. Apply the prepared garlic liquid to the new shoots of wintersweet, camellia, osmanthus, magnolia, etc.

Function:

1. Promote germination, allowing new buds to germinate 5-7 days in advance.

2. Apply it to the cut ends of flower pruning to prevent the cut ends from drying out and promote neat germination.

Aphid control

Steps:

1. Peel and mash 30g of garlic.

2. Add 500 grams of water to soak the garlic paste, stir well and filter.

3. Spray evenly on the leaves of chrysanthemum, cineraria, rose and other flowers once a day, and spray three or four times in a row. (Or use a brush or toothbrush to apply the garlic liquid directly to the leaves.)

Function:

1. It can effectively prevent and control aphids, scale insects, etc. on flowers, especially powdery mildew and black spot disease of roses. The effect will be better if an appropriate amount of adhesive such as soybean powder or laundry detergent is added.

2. Mash the garlic and sprinkle it on the soil in the pot, which can also kill earthworms, ants and nematodes.

Prevention of rot

Steps:

1. When the rhizomes of woody flowers such as Bauhinia and Forsythia have dried up and rotted, use a sharp knife to flatten them, reaching deep into the wood, and cut the bark around the pathogen into a smooth 60-degree slope. (It is best to expose the yellow-green cambium.)

2. Apply the garlic cloves directly to the wound to allow a layer of garlic mucus to adhere to it. Apply once every 7-10 days.

Function:

It can act as an antiseptic, and is more effective in summer.

Preservation and freshness

Steps:

1. Crush the garlic and soak it in clean water for 12 hours.

2. Boil the water and garlic, cool and filter to make garlic liquid.

3. Soak the cut flowers in the garlic liquid for 10-20 seconds.

Function:

This fresh cut flower preservative liquid can extend the shelf life of cut flowers.

Now you don’t dare to underestimate garlic anymore?

People are small,
