Among popular indoor plants, spathiphyllum occupies a special place. This is not just a beautiful plant with spectacular white colors, it also cleanses the air in the room well, and according to beliefs, it also helps its owners to find female happiness.

In general, the care of Spathiphyllum is quite simple - provide him with a rather absent -minded light and do not miss watering, and he will feel great. However, if you want to grow a really large bush and provide it with prolonged flowering, try to feed the flower with homemade fertilizer, which is told by the Interia Kobieta publication.

Usually spathiphyllum blooms twice a year - in spring and autumn, although this rule is not tough. Flowering lasts several weeks and in some cases flowers can last up to three months.

Do you want your plant to please you for so long, take a closer look at some of your kitchen waste. Namely, to the water in which you cook pasta or rice. It remains part of potassium, phosphorus and nitrogen, which are partially washed out of products during heat treatment. It is these substances that provide the flower with intense growth and health.

However, not all water after pasta or rice is suitable for fueling spathiphyllum. The decoction should not contain any spices, fats, and especially salt.

Extraneous substances can only worsen the quality of the soil in the pot and cause the death of the flower.

Boil pasta or rice in clean boiling water, and squeeze the broth into a separate vessel. You can use it only after it cools completely. After that, the liquid is diluted with clean, stained water in a 1: 1 proportion and used for watering spathiphyllum.

It is often not necessary to use such fertilizer. It is enough to water them a flower every three weeks. This will fully ensure the need for plants for nutrients.
