When using rice water to water flowers, it must be fermented. Never water it directly as it will burn the roots of the plants. The fermentation method is very simple. Just put the rice water in a plastic bottle, seal it and put it in the sun. After a few days, loosen the bottle cap and continue fermentation. When the water becomes clear, it is usually ready for use. But be careful not to water plants that like alkaline water, but water plants that like acidic water.

1. Whether fermentation is needed

1. Whether fermentation is needed

Rice water must be fermented before watering the flowers and cannot be used directly. If you water the flowers directly with rice water, the roots of the plants will be burned and the plants will probably be watered to death. Only when fully fermented can it be used to water flowers.

2. Fermentation method

< p> During fermentation, put the rice water into the bottle, screw the lid on, put it in the sun and wait for it to ferment slowly. Gas will be produced during fermentation, so loosen the cap slightly after a few days. If you are worried about the odor during fermentation, chop the orange peel and put it into the bottle with the rice water. This way the aroma of the orange peel can reduce the odor caused by fermentation.

3. How to calculate good fermentation

The fermentation time will not be too long. If the sun is good, it will be fermented in a week. Generally, you may need to wait about 15-30 days. When the rice water in the bottle becomes clear, it means it has been fully fermented and can be used to water the flowers.

It should be noted that even after fermentation, it must be diluted before watering the flowers. There are many plants that can be watered with rice water, as long as they are flowers that like acidity, such as common camellias, gardenias, azaleas, pothos, jasmine, and money trees. Because it becomes alkaline after fermentation, do not water plants such as cacti and prickly pear.
