Why should we use tea water to water asparagus fern? Can it help it grow more vigorously?

1. Reasons for pouring tea

The so-called tea naturally contains tea leaves, and tea leaves contain caffeine, which is weakly alkaline. Using tea water to water the plants can improve the pH of the soil, and weakly acidic soil is more conducive to the growth of asparagus fern. Keep the pH value between 6.5 and 7, so that its leaves will grow greener and the plant will be more vigorous.

2. Precautions

Although watering with tea can promote growth, it should be noted that it cannot be used directly. It should be fermented before use to convert the organic matter in the tea into inorganic salts so that the plants can absorb it. When fermenting, place it in a ventilated place. When you smell a bad odor, it means the fermentation is ready. If you water it directly in the pot, it will breed bacteria and insects, which will not only be useless but will also affect growth.

Because tea leaves contain nutrients needed for the growth of asparagus fern, you can put the tea leaves on the soil and let them decompose into fertilizer. However, you must pay attention to the amount and not put too much to avoid burning the roots. In addition, you can also water it with rainwater or rice water to promote growth.
