Baking soda is a gardener’s best friend: here are 10 smart uses in the garden<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cheap, edible, non-toxic and biodegradable, we can’t fault baking soda, this product we struggle to do without. And it is no coincidence that this white powder lends itself to multiple uses, both in the kitchen and for cleaning and gardening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Baking soda has been shown to be helpful in removing stains, whitening teeth, cleaning surfaces, and even eliminating pesticides. Its functions are diverse, and baking soda adds another string to its bow. This is its use in gardening which is also very practical for many reasons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 Keep the creatures away<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

To eliminate the insects that devastate your garden, baking soda will be your main ally. Get out of chemical pesticides that are harmful to your health and the environment and prefer this more eco-friendly white powder. To do this, mix in a spray bottle, a liter of water, a tablespoon of olive oil, two tablespoons of baking soda and a few drops of liquid soap. Spray your garden with this mixture every three days to repel insects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 Get rid of ants<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Are your garden and home infested with ants? Don’t panic. Mix five teaspoons of baking soda with five teaspoons of powdered sugar and one tablespoon of water. Look for anthills and pour this mixture over them. Say goodbye to pesky ants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 End of worms<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Cabbage worms can be problematic and prevent your vegetable from growing healthily. To remove them, simply mix an equal part of flour and baking soda and sprinkle this mixture on the cultivated plants. You won’t see worms anytime soon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 Clean the garden decoration<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

You all know the virtues of baking soda for cleaning your kitchen or bathroom. And your garden can also benefit from its cleaning power. All you have to do is sprinkle the white powder on all the decorative items in your garden and then wipe them with a damp cloth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 Clean the leaves of the plants<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Whether they are indoor or outdoor plants, they always need to be pampered. To give them a beauty session, you can rub the leaves with a mixture of water and baking soda. You will give them a healthy and shiny appearance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 Improves the taste of the vegetable garden<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If you enjoy organic farming, baking soda will help you grow healthier and tastier vegetables. And it is no coincidence that if you take the example of tomatoes and sprinkle a little baking soda on the soil, they will grow in less acidic soil and will therefore be juicier and sweeter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 Watering the flowers<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

To water the flowers in your garden, don’t hesitate to add some baking soda to your watering can. You’ll notice later that your flowers will be shiny and healthier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 Increase the life of flowers<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If you like to have bouquets of roses or flowers at home to enjoy their scent, you can improve their appearance and increase their shelf life by placing them in a vase of water with a pinch of salt and baking soda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 Get rid of fungi and mold<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

With humidity, fungi can grow on plants. Recognized for its fungicidal qualities, baking soda helps defeat mold. A study has also shown its effect on yeasts, dermatophytes and molds. Simply spray water with baking soda on the infected areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 Get rid of weeds<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Often weeds nest in the crevices of the garden path. To remedy this, simply moisten this area with a thick paste made from baking soda, and you’re done. Say goodbye to weeds that make your garden look neglected.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
