Add This Pantry Ingredient To Your Lavender Plant And Thank Us Later
By RITA KUEBER
To grow healthy lavender plants, it’s crucial to provide them with eight hours of sunlight daily and plant them in well-drained, slightly alkaline soil.
Lavenders thrive in soil with a pH level between 6.7 and 7.3. If your soil needs a pH boost, consider using baking soda.
Simply mix one tablespoon of baking soda into a gallon of water. When applying it, direct the treated water into the ground without wetting the plants directly.
Given that baking soda contains sodium, which may not be ideal for plant health, it’s best to monitor the soil’s pH regularly during the process to avoid overdoing it.
