Sometimes the soil for indoor flowers becomes covered with a white coating.
In the article, you will find out what this is connected with.
Why does the soil in flower pots turn white
White coating is usually caused by overwatering.
Since the soil is constantly waterlogged, water evaporates and, as a result, salts settle on the surface.
Plaque also appears if watering is done with hard water from the tap.
How to get rid of white deposits on the ground in flower pots
To do this, remove the top layer of soil with a salt crust, sprinkling the remaining area with fresh soil.
Remember that it is important to monitor the irrigation regime, avoiding drying out and waterlogging of the soil.
River sand or expanded clay are ideal as a drainage base.
How to remove white mold from the ground
Dilute half a teaspoon of citric acid in a glass of water and moisten the top layer of soil in the pot.
An acidic environment is not suitable for the development of fungi and the mold will disappear.
However, watering with citric acid is suitable only for those plants that like acidic soil.
