Guinea is a popular houseplant that many of us have in our home. Some people also know it as a snake. It owes its fame to its simplicity, unusual form of leaves and the ability to purify the air. This makes it worth keeping in the bedroom. Importantly, sansevieria does not have many requirements, so it will work well for people who are just starting their adventure with plant cultivation. From time to time, it is worth enriching it with a natural fertilizer that will help keep the flower healthy and contribute to the emergence of new leaves. One of the simplest methods is to use chicken egg shells.
Crush and pour into the pot. Guinea sansevieria will sprout new leaves quickly
One of the easiest and cheapest ways to properly care for potted flowers is to enrich them with natural, home-made fertilizers from leftovers. In this case, egg shells, which contain large amounts of calcium, selenium, zinc, copper and silicon, will be perfect. can be used in two ways.
- Crush the leftovers of boiled eggs and pour them into the pot. Gently mix them with the ground.
- Pour the shells with hot water and leave for two weeks in a cool, shady place. Strain the liquid and water the sansevieria.
It is worth noting that sansevieria does not need fertilization from September to March. Watering should also be reduced at this time.
Coil. The flower likes the sun, but the shade will not hurt it either
Sansevieria comes from dry and sunny areas, so it is worth placing it by the window from which the rays fall on it. The specificity of the plant means that it will also do well in a shady place. It is worth providing it with a lot of space, because sooner or later the roots will burst out of a too tight pot. Infrequent watering will not hurt it, but the roots of the plant, which may begin to rot, should not be allowed to overflow. For this reason, it is good practice to water the sansevieria every 7-9 days in the summer, and even every 3 weeks in the winter.
