Pour This into Your Geraniums Immediately to Stop Yellow Leaves, Boost Bloom Health, and Revive Weak Flowers
Geraniums are one of the most beloved flowering plants for home gardeners — vibrant, fragrant, and delightfully easy to care for. But even the healthiest-looking geraniums can suddenly start showing signs of distress: yellowing leaves, weak stems, and fewer blooms. Sound familiar?
The good news? There’s a simple, natural solution — and it might already be in your kitchen. Pour this powerful homemade mix into your geraniums, and watch them perk up almost overnight.
The Secret? A Simple DIY Epsom Salt Tonic
Epsom salt (magnesium sulfate) is a gardener’s secret weapon. This mineral-rich compound gives your geraniums the magnesium boost they need to green up their leaves, produce more vibrant blooms, and strengthen overall growth.
What You’ll Need:
- 1 tablespoon of Epsom salt
- 1 gallon of water
- A watering can or spray bottle
How to Use It:
- Dissolve the Epsom salt in one gallon of water. Stir until fully mixed.
- Pour directly into the soil around your geraniums, soaking the base of the plant. Avoid pouring it over the leaves to prevent residue buildup.
- Use this tonic once every two weeks during the growing season (spring through early fall).
Why It Works:
- Stops yellow leaves: Magnesium is essential for chlorophyll production. Without it, leaves start turning pale or yellow, especially between the veins.
