First, let's talk about the six methods of watering

1. Use leftover tea water to water the flowers, which can not only maintain the moisture of the soil, but also add nitrogen and other nutrients to the flowers. However, you must pay attention to watering regularly and appropriately according to the humidity of the flower soil, and you cannot water it at any time.

2. Leftover milk or expired milk can be fermented and diluted with water before watering the flowers, which is beneficial to the growth of flowers. It can be fermented in 2 to 3 days in summer.

3. Use boiled water to water the flowers. Flowers like the lucky charm plant particularly like pure boiled water, which can make the branches and leaves of flowers and trees lush and promote their early flowering.

4. Water the flowers with warm water. The weather is particularly cold in winter. It is best to warm the water indoors to make it the same as room temperature. That is, warm the water for watering the flowers before watering the flowers. This is watering the flowers with warm water, which is most conducive to the growth of flowers.

5. When using rice water to water the flowers, you need to ferment the water before watering the flowers. This will make the flowers grow lush and colorful.

6. How to water the flowers if no one is home when you are out? The solution is: fill a plastic bag with water, poke a small hole in the bottom of the bag with a needle, and place it on the soil in the flowerpot. This will allow the water to slowly seep into the soil to keep the soil moist and not kill the flowers.

Let's talk about the five methods of fertilization

1. Fertilizing with medical stone can promote the growth of flowers and prolong the flowering period.

2. Eggshell fertilization. Crushing the eggshells is a good fertilizer that can make flowers grow lushly.

3. Use cooked soybeans for fertilization. Dig three small holes in the soil of the flowerpot, 2 to 3 cm deep. Be careful not to damage the roots, and bury 3 to 5 soybeans in the holes.

4. Use bones for fertilizer. Roast the bones, crush them, and place them at the bottom of the flower pot. It is a good fertilizer.

5. Fertilize with rice water. Rice water contains nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. It is both a compound fertilizer and a mild fertilizer, but it must be fermented before use.

It should be noted that no matter which method of fertilization is used, it is necessary to alternate between applying fertilizer water once and clean water twice, and not just applying fertilizer water.
