Put banana skins into a container & add water. A day or 2 later, you'll have a great tonic to water the plants with. They seem to like it, and it encourages growth. If it's quite strong, then I water it down and can water more plants. It can sometimes smell of bananas while you're watering, but it doesn't last long.

I like to cut off the bottom of my bottle so I can controll the humidity, one of my seedlings leaves started to mold, too much moisture so I tried cutting the bottom of the bottle so I could unscrew the top and have a little ventilation, or maybe poke holes in the bottom with a hot nail it works great.

Before you add the water bottle to the soil, take a second bottle and cut it in half. Take the top “half” and insert that into the soil first, with the cap side down- remove cap. THEN add the bottle with water. Now the hole will not be blocked by soil and will drip freely.

Thoroughly enjoying binge-watching your videos! *I use chopsticks or thin wooden skewers to aerate soil in the pot and just turn it over (‘plough the field’). Then gently tap the pot and it makes the plant look more attractive with fresh soil appearance. Prevents impacted soil and I’m sure it re-introduces air back into the soil which benefits roots. *Spent tea bags: I save them, allow to dry out then cut open and collate in a separate container then periodically add 2-3 spoonfuls (even more) into each plant pot. This saves me from replacing the soil as it adds nutrients. My plants seem to thrive with intense green colours and general vibrancy.

Very nice tips, thanks. I'm not the only one using chopsticks then!

@Piccadilly Circus Do you add the 2+ spoonfuls on top of the soil and water over it or mix the dried tea throughout the potted soil?

@piccadilly171 Жыл бұрын

@@Joce-bl7qi I sprinkle the dried tea leaves to the soil and then use a chopstick to mix and aerate the soil. Tap the pot gently on the table and allow the soil to become evenly levelled again. You can water your plant now or if soil still looks and feels moist hold off watering until soil feels dry at least 1-2 inches down from top of soil (and your pot also feels lighter).

My personal hacks Bathroom shower for cleaning dust Asprin in snake plant (1 table in 1 litre, once in 3 months) Use dripper in top of moss stick in harsh summer Milli bug cocktail : banking sods + neem oil + handwash liquid + cockroach killer. My fertilizer mix : compost + bone meal + mustard cake + neem cake + epsom salt + dap granules + npk granules + urea. Let them ferment for 2 months then one tea is sufficient for one plant for 2 months. Every plants parents got many hack and so do I but can't recall all now.

I probably disagree with the first 2 tips because those nutriet media haven't decomposed yet. The decomposition that will start will probably promote strong fungal growth and ph drop in the pot soil. Not all plants will like that. Instead I water them with aquarium water and fertilise with aquarium filter contents.
