You can just add a drop of fish tank treatment to the bowl instead, it is sold anywhere that sells fish supplies. 24 hours is too long. Get a chlorine remover remedy from a fish store and put a drop or two in the new water. Let it sit for maybe an hour or two to get it to room temperature. Then it will be ready.

The short answer is yes, sugar does help plants grow.

However, excessive amounts of sucrose can be harmful to a plant.

For plants growing hydroponically or in a selective medium such as in a petri dish, sucrose is often used as a carbon source for sprouting plants.

Plants make sugars through photosynthesis by combining water and carbon dioxide. Plants use carbon dioxide as their main carbon source so they do not need sugar in their substrate to grow. But young plants and tissue plant clones that aren't yet efficiently producing sugars through photosynthesis can benefit from the extra carbon stored in sucrose.

Sugar water used in a plant's natural environment can also attract other organisms and bacteria. Although some may be symbiotic (help the plant), many can interfere with the plant's growth or even cause it to die.

Note this question is similar to one frequently asked about growing plants using carbonated soda drinks.

Having too many potted plants in the bedroom at night can reduce the oxygen levels as plants undergo respiration during the night, which may affect sleep quality. Additionally, some plants release carbon dioxide instead of oxygen during the night, making it important to balance the number of plants in the bedroom to maintain a healthy environment for sleeping.

A cherry is a (typically) sweet fleshy fruit, typically with a single dense nut which grows on trees of the Prunus genus. There are several different species of cherry, depending on the variety. The scientific name for the cherry itself is drupe, which is the name for any fruit with an outer fleshy part and a hard inner seed.

The scientific method involves making observations about sunflowers, formulating a hypothesis to explain these observations, designing and conducting experiments to test the hypothesis, analyzing the data collected, and drawing conclusions based on the results. This process is iterative and may involve refining the hypothesis or conducting further experiments to gain a deeper understanding of sunflower biology or behavior. Ultimately, the scientific method is a systematic approach to investigating and understanding the natural world.

The name "aloe" comes from the Arabic word "alloeh," meaning "shining bitter substance," referring to the sticky gel inside the plant's leaves that has been used for its medicinal properties for centuries.

Fonquieria splendens is the scientific name of the monkey tail cactus. The cactus has many common names. Perhaps the best known is ocotillo shrub, from the Nahuatl 'ocote' for 'torch'. Other common names are candlewood, flamingsword, Jacob's staff, and vine cactus.

Yes, in hot and dry weather, stomata close to prevent excessive water loss through transpiration. Closing the stomata helps plants conserve water and maintain optimal internal conditions for photosynthesis.

The scientific name for elder is Sambucus. The American Elderberry Sambucus canadensis has a variety called Aurea with yellow leaves. S. nigra the Common Elder also has a variety called Aurea. S. racemosa the red-berried Elder has one called Plumosa Aurea.

There are many plants commonly called Violet but the true Violet is Violet odorata the Sweet Violet.

Actually, the scientific name the previous answer alludes to is "viola odorata". And a wonderful scent it is, too.


Absolutely correct a slip on my part.

The scientific name for sea grass is "slignophilapidious" wich is a latin for new years eve a public holiday for all people all over the world and where everyone can sit down and relax with old friends and catch up with mates and have fun with a beer or two and let off fireworks around the campfre and give eachother gobbies.

The scientific name for Palm frons is Ravenea rivularis

The fruit of the cactus is commonly known as a prickly pear or cactus pear. It is a sweet and flavorful fruit that grows on certain species of cacti.

Bougainvillea Glabra. It is more commonly known as Paper Flower.

Ixora coccinea is the scientific name of the santan flower.

Aloe is not a cactus; it is a succulent plant. While both aloe and cactus are adapted to dry environments and store water in their leaves, they belong to different plant families. Aloe plants are part of the Asphodelaceae family, while cacti belong to the Cactaceae family.

Yes, temperature can affect germination. Seeds have specific temperature ranges at which they germinate best, and extremes in temperature can inhibit or slow down the germination process. Most seeds germinate best within a specific temperature range, which can vary depending on the plant species.

To root a broken philodendron, you can place the broken stem in a glass of water to allow roots to form. Once the roots have developed, you can then replant the cutting in well-draining soil to encourage new growth. Keep the soil consistently moist and provide indirect sunlight to help the plant establish itself.

Observe, obliterate, obvious

The American Heritage Dictionary has over 3 1/2 pages of words that begin with "ob". You would get a much more comprehensive answer by looking for it, rather than asking for it.

No, they will probably kill the plant.

It is found in Northern California and Oregon, growing in bogs and seeps with cold running water.

Yes sure. But it needs some rest. So trim off the dried stems, don not water it too much (about once a week a tablespoon) and do not move it around.

what do you mean by the dried stems?
