💧 3. Epsom Salt Elixir
Why it works: Epsom salt contains magnesium and sulfur, which help with chlorophyll production and nutrient absorption.
How to use:
- Mix 1 tablespoon of Epsom salt into 1 liter of water.
- Spray or water your plants with the mixture every two weeks.
☀️ 4. Optimize Light Exposure
Balcony gardeners: Ensure plants get at least 4–6 hours of sunlight daily. Rotate pots every few days to promote even growth.
Tip: Use reflective surfaces like white walls or foil boards to amplify light in shaded spaces.
🌿 5. Companion Planting
Why it works: Certain plants naturally support each other’s growth. For example:
- Basil next to tomatoes improves flavor and repels pests.
- Marigolds deter nematodes and attract pollinators.
🔁 6. Regular Pruning and Deadheading
Removing yellowed leaves, spent flowers, or weak stems redirects the plant’s energy toward new, healthy growth.
Bonus: It also improves airflow and reduces the risk of disease.
🐛 7. Natural Pest Deterrents
Keep pests at bay naturally with garlic spray, neem oil, or a simple soap-water solution. Healthy, pest-free plants grow stronger and faster.
