1 liter of water
3 cloves of garlic
1 tablet of succinic acid
A glass bottle
Steps 1: Dissolve the succinic acid tablet in hot water. Succinic acid plays a crucial role in strengthening the orchid’s root system and protecting it against harmful insects.
Steps 2 Finely chop or crush the garlic and mix it with the cooled solution. This step is essential because garlic contains sulfur compounds that have beneficial effects on plant health.
Steps 3 Pour the solution into a glass bottle and let it sit for a day. This allows the active components of garlic to diffuse into the water, creating a nutrient-rich solution.
Steps 4 Before watering with this solution, it is recommended to strain the garlic. This prevents pieces of garlic from blocking the irrigation system or decomposing at the base of the plant, which could attract pests.
