This method is quick and safe, provided it’s done properly. Follow these steps:
1. Choose the Right Pills
Use vitamin B1 or multivitamin tablets that contain mainly B-complex vitamins. Avoid supplements with added sugars, artificial colors, or unnecessary fillers.
2. Crush Two Pills
Use a spoon to crush two pills into fine powder. This helps the nutrients dissolve quickly in water.
3. Mix with Water
Dissolve the crushed pills in 1 liter of lukewarm water. Stir thoroughly to ensure complete mixing.
4. Water the Plant
Slowly pour the vitamin solution around the base of the Peace Lily, ensuring the roots get soaked. Avoid pouring on the leaves or flowers.
5. Observe and Repeat (If Needed)
Use this treatment once every 3–4 weeks during the plant’s active growing or blooming season. You should begin to notice the leaves becoming more vibrant and new flower buds appearing within 2–3 weeks.
What Results to Expect
Within a couple of weeks of applying the vitamin water, most healthy but dormant Peace Lilies will show signs of revival:
Greener, firmer leaves: The plant’s foliage will regain its strength and sheen.
Improved root activity: Stronger roots lead to better nutrient uptake.
Fresh flower buds: Especially if the plant was previously blooming, you may see new buds forming.
Increased resistance to disease: Healthy, well-nourished plants are better at warding off pests and rot.
In more advanced cases of stress—where the plant is nearly wilted or has lost all its flowers—the method can still help the Peace Lily regain its strength and eventually bloom again, as long as the roots are not completely rotten.
Important Tips for Success
Don’t overdo it: Using this treatment too frequently can lead to a buildup of nutrients, which may harm the plant.
Check the roots: If your Peace Lily is severely wilted, gently check the roots. Trim away any mushy, black roots before treating.
Improve overall care: Combine the vitamin treatment with good plant care—regular watering, indirect light, and occasional repotting.
Bonus Tip: Combine With Natural Fertilizers
If you want to boost the effect, consider pairing this method with natural fertilizer sources such as banana peel water or diluted compost tea. These supply a broader range of micronutrients that work well with vitamin treatments.
Conclusion
If your Peace Lily looks like it’s on the brink, don’t give up just yet. With just two crushed vitamin pills and some water, you can revitalize even a tired-looking plant and restore it to full bloom. This simple, cost-effective trick not only rescues struggling Peace Lilies but helps keep them flowering longer and more vibrantly than ever before.
Try this method on your Peace Lily today and enjoy the transformation—lush green leaves and fresh blooms are just a few steps away!
