Sometimes even the simplest flowers pass through a difficult time. Therefore, it is useful to know the recipe for a quickly prepared and effective mixture. Fertilizer rich in nutrients that have a beneficial effect on dracens can be prepared from kitchen residues.
Dracena is one of the simplest pot plants for maintenance and can impressively decorate every interior. And although taking care of it is not too complicated, it may sometimes happen that its leaves begin to yellow and die. If this happens, intervene immediately. Take advantage of the household waste, which we produce in the kitchen practically every day.
Dracena loses leaves. The cause may be inappropriate weather conditions
Dracens owners should not forget to provide the plant with a place in bright, well lit areas where the temperature is maintained in the range of 18-25 degrees Celsius. The flower thrives best in fertile, humus soil rich in nutrients, so it is important to not forget to fertilize it. Watering is another important issue of care. This care should be carried out when the soil is dry to a depth of 2 cm. In summer and spring, it should be watered much more often (twice a week) than in autumn and winter (every two weeks).
The last aspect we should make sure that the dracena develops properly, does not lose the leaves and locks is the level of air humidity. For this purpose, it is recommended to place an air humidifier near the pot. It may be particularly useful during the heating season when the plant is most at risk of loss of fitness. Additional support will also provide the use of a home conditioner based on kitchen waste. This product is used by many people around the world in the morning.
Dracena – yellow leaves. Save the plant using a home product
Coffee is a product after which many people like to reach in the morning. Interestingly, not only people but also plants enjoy this drink. The solution formed from coffee deposits is one of the best nutrients to treat dracene. It is a fertilizer rich in phosphorus, magnesium and potassium, and it acidifies the substrate, ideal for the preferences of this unique plant. All we need to do is pour the coffee deposits back into warm water after drinking coffee (for 1 tbsp is 250 ml). After cooling, they can be poured into a pot. It is recommended not to do this more often than once every two weeks. It is good to alternate it with (unsalted) water after boiled vegetables.
