Say no to secondhand smoke, 8 recommended plants for smoking in the living room

Schefflera

Schefflera brings fresh air to smoking homes. Its beautiful duck-foot leaves can absorb nicotine and other harmful substances from the smoky air and convert them into harmless plant-specific substances through photosynthesis. In addition, it can reduce formaldehyde concentration by approximately 9 mg per hour.

ivy

The tiny pores on the leaves of ivy can effectively absorb formaldehyde and nicotine in the air and convert them into harmless sugars and amino acids. They can also absorb smoke produced by smoking and resist carcinogens in nicotine.

Clivia

If there are two or three pots of Clivia in a room of more than ten square meters, they can absorb the smoke caused by tobacco in the room.

An adult Clivia can absorb 1 liter of air in a day and release 80% of oxygen, and can carry out photosynthesis even under extremely weak light. It does not emit carbon dioxide at night.

Especially in the cold winter in the north, because the doors and windows are closed and the indoor air is not circulating, Clivia will play a good role in regulating the air. Keep the indoor air fresh.

Drug Weed

The drug grass can convert the nicotine produced by smoking in the air into oxygen and carbon dioxide, making it very suitable for growing in the living room.

Experts remind that "drug-absorbing grass" cannot really absorb toxic substances into the body, but adsorbs them on the surface of the leaves. Therefore, this type of grass with adsorption function needs to be maintained outdoors in the sun every once in a while to allow it to detoxify.

Pothos

Pothos is a plant that strongly absorbs formaldehyde and is known as a good formaldehyde absorber. It can remove harmful gases such as formaldehyde, benzene, carbon monoxide, and nicotine.

Ficus microcarpa

The fiddle-leaf fig has tall branches and large leaves, which can absorb dust and fumes in the air, and also has a certain absorption effect on second-hand smoke and dust. It can also absorb harmful gases such as smoke, increase the content of negative ions in the air, and raise the air temperature.

Rubber Tree

The rubber tree is a versatile plant killer and has a certain resistance to harmful gases in the air, such as carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and hydrogen fluoride.

Rubber trees can also eliminate inhalable particulate matter pollution and effectively trap indoor dust.

Money Tree

The money tree is evergreen all year round and can absorb toxic gases and release oxygen through photosynthesis. It can absorb carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide pollution more effectively, and plays a certain role in resisting the waste gas produced by tobacco burning.

That’s it!

If you have any flower lovers at home who smokes, you can buy one and take it home!
