I promised you two great tonics on the show this weekend, and here they are! If you have Gardenias or have Houseplants, which you want to look their best for the Holidays. These tonics are for you!

Gardenia Booster

  1. 1 gallon of water
  2. 1 tablespoon Knox gelatin
  3. 3 tablespoon spoons hydrogen peroxide
  4. 1 tea bag
  5. 1 teaspoon liquid iron
  6. ½ teaspoon ammonia
  7. ½ teaspoon baby shampoo

For this tonic, mix ingredients, and pour all of it on top of roots, use entire gallon for a two foot plant., use two gallons for a four foot plant.

Houseplant/ Fungus/Gnat Tonic

  1. 1 quart mist bottle
  2. 1 tablespoon antiseptic mouthwash
  3. ½ tsp Murphy's Oil Soap
  4. ¼ teaspoon Pyrethrin or Neem oil

Mist tonic directly onto foliage, it is that simple.

The two tonics should really keep your plants looking healthy and strong!
