4 Tips For Healthy Indoor Plants.
We all want pretty houseplants. It is true that it brightens up an apartment!
Thinking we don't have a "green thumb", we water them and give them fertilizer. But they are chemical and not cheap.
But there are 4 foods that can sustain them naturally.
And for almost no penny!
1. The banana
Your pleasure plants, especially small roses, are delighted when you give them ... bananas! Yes, banana.
How to do
Bury a banana peel at the foot of your plants.
You can also polish the leaves of your houseplants with the banana peel. Or feed your cut flowers by adding small pieces of banana peel to the vase.
This remedy works because the banana has enzymatic and antifungal properties.
2. Cooking water
The cooking water from your vegetables provides vitamins for your green plants and cut flowers.
How to do
Water your plants with or put the cooled cooking water in the vases. They will receive the vitamins and minerals they need to grow while staying green.
3. Olive oil
Olive oil is great for killing aphids and other tiny, annoying little critters. Be careful, don't think your houseplants can't have them.
How to do
Simply add a tablespoon of olive oil to the soil of your plants. Aphids will flee and your plants will flourish beautifully.
4. Beer
Beer will be the "shine" ingredient in your plants. Besides, maybe you yourself consume brewer's yeast to have beautiful hair? Here, it is the same principle.
How to do
Mix 25 cl of blond beer with 25 cl of water. Dip a soft cloth in this mixture and gently polish the leaves of your plants. The carbs in beer will do all the work naturally!
