Sugar
Sugar to obtain lush geraniums.
Sugar is an effective natural ingredient for invigorating and revitalizing plants, especially when they begin to lose color in winter. In fact, the lack of light during this cold season of the year can cause yellowing of plant foliage. To avoid this, simply sprinkle the soil with a teaspoon of powdered sugar. You can also mix sugar and ground coffee, which is a good fertilizer for plants. This mixture will give the plants a boost and stimulate their root growth. Then water the soil to incorporate the mixture well. If this trick is effective it is because plants need glucose to feed themselves, but also to promote the development of their root system. To provide your plants with additional nutrients, you can mix sugar with other natural products, such as white vinegar or yeast, to fertilize your plants, especially those in the garden.
