Mosquito repellent grass

Every summer, there is a pile of mosquito repellent grass. Have flower friends been dazzled? To say that the mosquito repellent effect is the best, it also belongs to this one: Geranium

Function: mosquito repellent

There is something called citronellal in the smell of geranium, which can drive away mosquitoes, so people call it mosquito repellent grass. Put a basin in a ventilated place at home, you can smell the fragrance in more than ten flat rooms, and even mosquito repellent incense is saved

Mosquito repellent cutting:

If you want to plant mosquito repellent grass, just cut the roots and branches. The length is 5-8 cm. You'd better take leaves and insert it in the wet sand (it's hot, and the sand survival rate is high). Be careful not to insert it too deep. 1-2 cm is enough. Put it in a cool place and spray water every morning and evening to humidify it. It takes about 1 week to take root

If you want to speed up rooting, you can also pour some potassium permanganate solution (potassium permanganate: water = 1:500). Don't be curious to move branches during cutting, otherwise all previous efforts will be wasted

Daily maintenance:

Mosquito repellent grass grows fast. It is usually raised in a sunny and ventilated place at home. It can grow crazy if you see the soil dry and then water it. If your mosquito repellent grass is gnashing its teeth and claws, it is recommended to trim the flowers. The aroma will be stronger and the mosquito repellent effect will be better

After watering through the flowerpot and putting it in the shade for 3-5 days, they will sprout. After sprouting, they can see light in the morning and evening and grow faster~

When the seedlings grow to 8-10 cm, prepare for transplanting. It is more suitable to plant 1-2 trees in a basin with an ordinary diameter of 20 cm. Too many trees are prone to malnutrition. When changing pots, it's best to take some soil at the root and don't hurt the seedlings. After transplanting, it's better to slow down in the shade for 2-3 days, and then move to a place with good light for normal maintenance

In the summer, when you are exposed to the sun, you can go home at night to pick a piece of aloe leaf, take out the leaf pulp and mash it. You can directly apply it on your face, whiten and reduce inflammation. However, Huahua recommends applying it for 5-10 minutes. It is easy to stimulate it for too long.
