A lady once told me that sugar for an orchid is like an antibiotic for a person.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Use it correctly and your orchid will be revitalized.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>What is sugar used for?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>For wilted plants,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>For those that you have accidentally damaged while handling them,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>For those that have not bloomed in a long time,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>For older plants that lack energy.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">How to do it? I used this treatment on my sister&#8217;s orchid, which was about to be discarded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I dissolved 1 teaspoon of sugar in a liter of water and immersed the orchid in that solution, letting it soak for about 8 to 9 hours (it is said that it can be left for a whole day).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Then I submerged it for an hour in stagnant water.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That&#8217;s it. When I took it out of the water and put it back in its usual position, I immediately noticed that the leaves were fuller and the flowers stood up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The next day she looked much better and gradually made a full recovery, a miracle for my sister, just sugar for me!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here&#8217;s what my orchid looks like; the purple one has even sprouted the most since I brought it home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Kind regards, Evka from Ilava<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So don&#8217;t forget to try to help a damaged or wilted orchid by soaking it in a sugar solution made up of a teaspoon of sugar and a litre of water. Then leave it in warm water for another hour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>That&#8217;s all!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">More tips with sugar A tablespoon in each pot Almost all flowering houseplants enjoy sweets (even flowering cacti): of course, not in large quantities, but a little sugar in the soil can stimulate and revitalize them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Simply add sugar before watering:<\/strong>&nbsp;1\/2 teaspoon per pot with a diameter of at least 10 cm (sprinkle on the soil) or prepare a sugar watering: \u00bd teaspoon of sugar per 250 ml of water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We use it as a stimulant once a month, before flowering (when the plant begins to release its buds).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>It will destroy nematodes in the garden.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Here is a Spanish version of the article:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If your garden plants look in poor condition and have nodules on their roots, they have probably been the victims of an attack by nematodes. These tiny worms attack the roots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can prevent the attack of these discreet parasites by creating an unfavorable environment for them with sugar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sprinkle approximately 2 kilograms of sugar per 25 square meters of garden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Microorganisms that feed on sugar will increase the amount of organic substances in the soil, thus displacing dangerous invaders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Gardener and florist at the same time If your flowers are wilting and you don&#8217;t know what to do, take a close look at their roots; the problem could be worms attacking them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Therefore, try adding sugar to the soil, which will support the activity of beneficial bacteria and microorganisms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They will provide the most hostile environment for other worms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is recommended to add sugar and vinegar to the water occasionally during regular waterings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">About two tablespoons of sugar and two tablespoons of vinegar per pint of water will provide additional nutrition for the flowers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And to make them look beautiful not only in the garden but also in a vase, add sugar and vinegar for prolonged freshness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Quick Cleansing for Greasy and Dirty Hands If you have a lot of grease, dirt or paint on your hands, clean them easily and carefully by pouring a small amount of crystallized sugar into your palms and then adding the same amount of olive oil.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here is a Spanish version of the article: If you&#8217;ve repotted an orchid and it&#8217;s not thriving, you&#8217;ve accidentally damaged it, or it&#8217;s just gone too long without blooming, try this trick &#8211; so far, it hasn&#8217;t disappointed me.
