Plants naturally produce a substance in response to injury, such as when cut, which also causes wilting of the plant. Aspirin inhibits this substance and so delays the aging process of flowers in the vase..
When used on growing plants, it boosts their immune systems by activating their protective responses. Aspirin contains salicylic acid which plants produce naturally for this purpose.
"I've recommended it to just about everybody. The people who've tried it, that is, people who grow from oats to orchids, have found that plants do remarkably better when given small amounts of aspirin water. I've tried it on my houseplants, and it does really well. Plants are more vigorous and I'm having fewer problems with aphids and the typical things that can build up on houseplants over the winter." In years past when we had live Xmas trees at home, we used to put aspirin in with the water. It helped to keep it alive longer and it stayed much greener.
I did this experiment and the results I concluded was that benadryl doesn't have an effect, the plant doesn't die but it doesn't grow. Calcium makes the plant grow a lot. The vitamin C helps the plant grow but does not drastically iincrease the plant's growth. The aspirin kills the plant, this happens because it makes the soil acidic and that affects plant growth.
We Did an experiment in our BSAA class putting 40mL of water with 1 aspirin tablet and 20 radish seeds and got only one seed to germinate. we noticed that after opening the bag the seeds were germinating in we could smell a sort of acidic smell, like vinegar. we concluded that the aspirin tablet was too acidic to effectively cause a radish seed to germinate
The effects of Advil is that the plants don't grow. They begin to die over time depending how the amount of Advil given.
No-where on earth did you hear that?
There is no effect at all.
We always put in ASPIRIN in our cut flowers...or flowers from the garden etc....they seem to last a lot longer and the colors do not fade.
The salicylic acid in the aspirin will help keep the water clean and free of flower damaging bacteria. The flowers will keep longer
Yes it can affect your BAC if you have been drinking. Aspirin inhibits your body's ability to metabolize alcohol.
Aspirin can pass into breast milk and may affect the baby
Aspirin can be dissolved in a vase of water to help prolong the life of the flowers. The aspirin gives them extra nutrients and is usually what is the basis of the packets florists give customers.
the analgesic properties of aspirin open up stems for better water intake. It also boosts up the immune system of the plant. the aspirin acidifies the water to prevent bacteria.
losing yield
There are many different oppinions but over all what most people are saying is that you keep the water ratio higher than the aspirin ratio. Hope I helped. ; D
aspirin is acidic so blue litmus paper will turn to red
No they say it does but dont because it will not do anything.....if anything it will just kille them faster....i tried it and it did nothing they both looked the same.
You put a teaspoon of sugar in the vase of flowers with the water to keep the flowers fresh
Yes. Soma (carisprodol) is a muscle relaxant unrelated to aspirin. It does not affect bleeding nor the stomach or kidneys but can cause sedation.
