Unlikelythere are some plants which are said to grow best in a acidic environment has anyone ever tried watering such plants with water with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice. Did it help ?
I don't know about the acidic part, but some of my family use lemonade to water plants because it gives both carbon dioxide and water to the plants and makes them last longer. I can't say how much better it works since, truth be told, I don't usually do that sort of stuff, but it sounds like it would make sense once you realise what plants need.
Not a clue on the answer here, but to balance it up, if some plants grow best in an alkaline environment would you water them with a squeeze of diluted bleach? Probably not.there are some plants which are said to grow best in a acidic environment has anyone ever tried watering such plants with water with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice. Did it help ?
You might use sodium bicarbonate though.Not a clue on the answer here, but to balance it up, if some plants grow best in an alkaline environment would you water them with a squeeze of diluted bleach? Probably not.
Diluted Lemonade can be used to extend the life of cut flowers in a vase (particularly carnations), but I would not use it for living plants that still have roots.I don't know about the acidic part, but some of my family use lemonade to water plants because it gives both carbon dioxide and water to the plants and makes them last longer.

Oh, suddenly it makes a lot more sense. I've only seen people use lemonade for flowers that don't have roots.Diluted Lemonade can be used to extend the life of cut flowers in a vase (particularly carnations), but I would not use it for living plants that still have roots.
