Basic rules for caring for indoor plants

Excessive watering or, conversely, lack of moisture in the soil harms the root system of the plant.

How to water indoor flowers to grow well

If watered with cold water, the stems and roots of plants rot, and leaves and buds may fall off.

Every two months, add an aspirin tablet to the irrigation water. One tablet per liter of water.

If this condition is met, the plants will be resistant to disease, and their leaves will have a rich green color.

In addition, the growth rate will also increase.

How often should you loosen the soil of indoor flowers

The depth of soil cultivation and the frequency of loosening depend on the type of plant: Near flowers with a developed root system, as well as bulbous representatives of the flora, the soil should be loosened to a depth of 8 to 12 cm.

This will provide the plant with the necessary oxygen and moisture.

The procedure must be repeated once every two weeks.
