  1. Interesting trick I learned today. Btw 1 teaspoonful (5 ml) of 3% hydrogen peroxide solution in 1.5 liters (1500 ml) of water as described at 1:30 is a 0.01% final solution. I also read from comment below a higher concentration where 1 teaspoonful (5 ml) of 3% hydrogen peroxide solution in 1 liter (1000 ml) of water, resulting in a 0.015% final solution can also be used. The shortcut of figuring out how much 3% hydrogen peroxide to make in each concentration is as following: Divide the amount of solution you want to make X ml, ie dividing X with 300 if 0.01% or with 200 if 0.015%. Fox example to make 1500 ml of 0.01% will need 1500/300 = 5 ml, 1500 ml of 0.015% will need 1500/200 = 7.5 ml.

  2. I bought a Reduced fading Clivia.
    I took it out the pot, cut half the roots off.
    Repotted it, Fed it, and within 3 months it was flowering. Flowered for 5 years now.
