How to Make Your Own Food For Flowers
There are 3 ingredients that are helpful when trying to keep your flowers fresh and long-lasting. They are:
- Sugar – provides nutrition for flowers
- Citric acid – acts as an acidifier and lowers the ph level of the water
- Bleach – prevents bacteria growth in the vase
Here are a few do-it-yourself options that I have come across:
- One part lemon lime soda (7-Up, Sprite) to 3 parts of water
- Two tablespoons lemon juice, one tablespoon sugar, one quarter teaspoon bleach to one quart of water
- Two tablespoons of white vinegar and two tablespoons of sugar to one quart of water
