Recently, there has been a wide range of snowfall in the south, and the flower friends who love nature are naturally idle, and they have begun to store snow water for watering flowers.
1. The crown of soft water
Snow water is very mild in nature and neutral, ranking according to the weight content of the water; Snow water, rainwater, river water, lake water, groundwater, tap water.
The higher the heavy water content, the less conducive it is to the growth of flowers. It's much better to be able to water the flowers with snow water more often than with tap water!
Especially some flowers that bloom in winter and spring, watered with snow water, often have large flowers, bright colors, rich fragrance, and excellent ornamental value! For example, begonias, camellias, plums, junzi orchids and other flowers.
Snow water has a special structural state, it is a regular dodecagonal icy water, similar to the structure of water in plant cells, making it easier for plants to absorb snow water.
In addition, snow water contains small amounts of minerals and metallic substances, which can replenish the needs of plants.
When snowflakes fall from high in the sky, nitrogen-containing substances such as nitric oxide and nitrogen dioxide in the atmosphere will adhere to the snowflakes, so the nitrogen content in snow water is high, so that snowflakes become a very pure nitrogen fertilizer.
Moreover, this nitrogen fertilizer is nitrate nitrogen, which is easier to be absorbed and utilized by the root system than ammonium nitrogen, and directly supplements the nutrients required by the root system.
It can stimulate the activity of enzymes in plant cells, enhance the metabolic ability of flowers and plants, and promote the growth of flowers and plants.
Frequent use of snow water to water the flowers, which is equivalent to thin fertilizer and diligent application, can make your flowers and leaves green and shiny, and grow well.
When you go outside to collect snow, choose clean snow and don't take the dirty snow home to water the flowers.
Because dirty snow water may contain a lot of bacteria, in a warm and humid environment, bacteria can multiply rapidly, which may threaten the growth of flowers and plants.
In addition, after the snow in the city, it is possible to use snow melting agent, which is generally dirty, black, and piled on the roadside or green belt, and this artificially treated snow should never be used to water flowers, because the snow melting agent contains a lot of salt, and taking it home to water the flowers will make it dehydrated and die.
Do not water the snow immediately after it melts, but place it at the same temperature as the room temperature before watering the flowers, otherwise the temperature of the snow water is too low, causing yellow leaves and falling leaves.
Generally, the snow water taken back from the outside can be left for about 2-3 days to water the flowers and plants.
But don't leave it for too long, because the snow itself is mixed with germs in the air, and if you leave it in a warm environment for too long, the germs will multiply, and then use it to water the flowers, which will easily lead to root rot.
