1. Can I water it with vinegar
Better not use it. There are many claims that vinegar can be used instead of water to water this plant. In fact, this statement is wrong. Although vinegar contains acetic acid, which can properly supplement the nutrients needed for plant growth, it has little effect. Because it belongs to organic matter, it is better to directly use some inorganic nutrients similar to ferrous sulfate p>
Moreover, different kinds of vinegar will not contain exactly the same components, and some will also contain NaCl, which is not so friendly to the plant. It can change the salinity of the flower soil and the osmotic pressure of the solution, and will affect the speed of the plant root to absorb nutrients from the soil p>
2. Other functions
Although vinegar cannot be used directly instead of water, it has some other functions for the growth of this plant p>
① Improve soil quality. We all know that this kind of plant prefers slightly acidic flower soil, and if we don't have the conditions to get this kind of flower soil, it will be very troublesome. Vinegar can be used at this time. Improve the soil quality and reduce the pH value of flower soil to make it more suitable for the growth of this plant p>
② Wipe the leaf surface. The leaves of this plant are bright and green, very beautiful, but they often accumulate dust or dim and lose luster. We can also use vinegar at this time. We can use cotton or toilet paper dipped in some vinegar to wipe the surface of the leaf, and soon it will return to light p>
3. Method of use
① If you use paper to improve the soil quality, you need to dissolve it in water in the proportion of 1:50, then pour it into the flower soil and mix it evenly. Note that this method may not be effective immediately at first, but after a period of time, the pH of flower soil will slowly drop p>
② If you use it to wipe leaves, you should dissolve it in water in a ratio of one to two, then dip some with cotton or toilet paper and wipe gently on the problematic leaf surface p>
