Can baking soda really be used as a pesticide when growing vegetables? Why?

Hello, yes.

Baking soda is sodium bicarbonate.

The chemical formula NaHCO), which is a white fine crystal, is weakly alkaline when dissolved in water. It is also because of this property that baking soda can also be used to control certain plant diseases.

1. Spraying baking soda solution in the greenhouse can not only prevent disease, but also increase yield. Many diseases such as cucumber powdery mildew, anthracnose.

Tomato leaf mold, late blight, etc., its pathogenic bacteria are difficult to survive under alkaline conditions. The use of 500 times baking soda solution to prevent and control the above diseases is very effective.

2. Baking soda can prevent and control gladiolus.

Chrysanthemums, longevity flowers.

The effect of pestilence, powdery mildew, anthracnose, etc., such as orchids, rhododendrons, pomegranates, etc., is as high as 95%.

Hello! Baking soda should not be used as a pesticide! Pesticides are divided into insecticides, fungicides, herbicides, growth regulators, etc., which should be prescribed according to the situation and cannot be used blindly! Baking soda is not a pesticide and does not have any effect on vegetable pests and diseases.

Baking soda can indeed be used to make pesticides because baking soda is an alkaline substance. Alkaline substances can often be based on the growth of fungi, so for fungal diseases in vegetables, baking soda can be used to prevent and control baking soda, which is a non-toxic and harmless substance, can also be very easy to decompose, and use baking soda as a pesticide, no toxicity, and will not affect and pollute the environment. For us people who eat baking soda to kill some fungi and some insects on vegetables, there is no need to worry about causing harm to the human body.

In fact, baking soda can be eaten, so don't worry about using baking soda as a pesticide, which will cause pesticide damage to vegetables. Someone has done a certain test, for this powdery mildew case and like this double mildew disease, using the first method to kill and control, it has a great effect, and its effect has reached at least 97%, so this can indeed be used as a pesticide.

Baking soda is used to prevent and sterilize, and it must be diluted to a certain extent. Usually it is 500 times, and then for cucumber or cabbage, once this powdery mildew occurs, it can be sprayed every 3 or 4 days, and sprayed directly on this leaf, which can have a good effect. I also tried it at home, I planted this tomato at home before, and this powdery mildew also appeared, and then I chose to spray it with baking soda, and the effect was really good, and it was normal in less than a week.

Baking soda also has a wonderful effect, it can not only prevent some diseases, but also promote development results. For some people who like to plant flowers, you can spray some baking soda, then it can indeed promote flowering and fruiting, and can effectively extend the flowering period. For example, the flowering period is about 20 days, so spraying this baking soda frequently, its flowering period can be extended by at least 10 days, which is indeed a blessing for people who like to appreciate flowers.

Baking soda can really be used as a pesticide, because it has a bactericidal effect, mainly for powdery mildew, and also has a certain effect of increasing yield.

Baking soda is an ingredient used in pastries and should not be used as a pesticide for vegetables.

Baking soda can be used wisely and rationally in the cultivation of vegetables, which can play a role in preventing insect pests and improving vegetable yields. Moreover, its cost is low, and it is non-polluting and harmless to the vegetables planted.

Baking soda mixed with aqueous solution can be used to control powdery mildew, anthracnose, downy mildew, etc. of greenhouse tomatoes and cucumbers. In particular, it has a very significant effect on the prevention and control of powdery mildew of cucumber and Chinese cabbage, and mildew of cowpea.

When compiling manure and manure, it will always be troubled by the odor it emits. Adding a certain amount of baking soda during composting can promote the fermentation of the manure heap and reduce the odor.

Improving the aggregate structure of the soil is conducive to the aeration of the root system of the planted vegetables, so as to strengthen the absorption of the vegetable roots, and finally promote the growth and development of vegetables.

The principle is that when baking soda is decomposed, a large amount of water and carbon dioxide will be generated, which will significantly enhance the photosynthesis of plants and synthesize more nutrients, which has a very significant effect on the growth of vegetables and the development of fruits.

1. Soaking seeds in baking soda aqueous solution can effectively soften the seed coat and improve the germination rate of seeds.

For our farmers and friends, when planting all kinds of crops (especially when using some fruits and vegetables with a thick waxy layer or oil layer), it is often necessary to soak seeds and promote germination, so as to awaken the activity of seeds, improve the water absorption and germination ability of seeds, so as to ensure that crops can have a higher germination rate after sowing.

In addition to the methods commonly used by all of us such as soaking seeds in warm water and soaking in liquid medicine, the use of baking soda aqueous solution soaking seeds is also a good way to improve the germination rate of seeds. The operation and use method of baking soda soaking seeds to promote germination is relatively simple: the seeds of crops such as melons, fruits and vegetables are disinfected and sterilized with drugs, and then the seeds are removed and rinsed and placed in the baking soda water solution for half an hour, and finally the seeds are removed and rinsed and placed in a warm and humid environment of about 28-32 degrees for germination.

Baking soda soaking seed germination method is used on those seeds with a thick waxy layer or strong oiliness, which has the effect of softening the seed coat and improving the germination rate is very obvious.

2. Spraying baking soda on seedlings can effectively inhibit the reproduction of germs and the spread of diseases.

First of all, let's make it clear to you: baking soda itself does not have the effect of sterilization, because baking soda itself is an alkaline substance, and the vast majority of diseased bacteria live in an acidic or weakly alkaline environment, but most of the diseased bacteria are not strong alkaline or can not survive in a strong alkaline environment, so baking soda can not play a direct bactericidal role, but can only inhibit the reproduction of pathogens and the growth of mycelium.

The reason why baking soda can play a role in the prevention and control of diseases is that by spraying alkaline baking soda aqueous solution on seedlings in succession, the alkalinity of the living environment of the bacteria can be greatly improved, so as to destroy the environmental places that are conducive to the survival and reproduction of the bacteria, and then play a role in the disease prevention and control effect of inhibiting the reproduction of the bacteria.

From the actual effect of spraying baking soda aqueous solution on crops to prevent and control diseases, after baking soda is sprayed on crops (especially all kinds of fruits and vegetables), it is very good for inhibiting the reproduction and spread of powdery mildew, downy mildew, anthracnose, leaf mold, late blight and other diseases on crops, especially for inhibiting powdery mildew, downy mildew and anthracnose on crops. The specific spraying method is also relatively simple, taking all kinds of fruits and vegetables as an example: during the growth period of fruits and vegetables, the baking soda is diluted with water into an aqueous solution of baking soda, and then sprayed 1-2 times in the early stage of the disease, when the disease is mild, it can only be sprayed 1 time, and when the disease is severe, it can be sprayed 1-2 times according to the disease control situation, and it can be sprayed once every 2-3 days.

Baking soda spraying to control the use of disease skills: one is to spray in the early stage of the disease, and the other is to spray before the rain or after the rain before the high incidence of the disease.

On the one hand, this prevents diseases, and on the other hand, it provides more carbon dioxide to the plants.

Yes, because baking soda and pesticides will have a neutralizing effect, allowing the pesticide to dissolve in water.

Pesticides are divided into two characteristics, water-soluble and oil-soluble, both of which are acidic components, while baking soda powder is alkaline; When baking soda is added to the vegetables, it will work in the water, so it has the effect of removing pesticides. **At present, farmers have been encouraged to use water-soluble pesticides, as long as the vegetables and fruits are flushed with a large amount of water, the pesticides can be washed off. However, it is difficult to quantify the timing and extent of the flushing, and it is impossible for the general public to detect whether it is clean or not.

Soak the rinsed fruits and vegetables in water, add a teaspoon of baking soda, soak for about 5 minutes, stir with your hands in the water, the pesticide will neutralize with the baking soda, dissolve the pesticide in the water, and the pesticide residue on the fruit and vegetables can be completely washed away.

I always feel that the vegetables I buy are not clean, and some vegetables are not easy to clean. So, is it good to wash vegetables in baking soda? How long do you soak vegetables in baking soda water?

Baking soda washes vegetables.

1 Is it good to wash vegetables with baking soda water.

It's good to wash vegetables in baking soda.

Most of the vegetables on the market are sprayed with pesticides, and it is difficult to clean the pesticides stained in the vegetables by washing them with water. Baking soda is alkaline, pesticides are acidic, alkaline baking soda can effectively decompose the chemicals in pesticides, produce a neutralization reaction, and reduce the harm caused by pesticides residues on vegetables to the human body.

Vegetable. 2 How long to soak the vegetables in baking soda water.

About 15 minutes.

When washing vegetables with baking soda, soak the vegetables in baking soda for about 15 minutes, and soak for 15 minutes to fully neutralize most of the pesticide components on the vegetables with baking soda and reduce the harm.

Vegetable. 3 How to wash vegetables with baking soda.

1. Pick up a basin of water and pour a pinch of baking soda into the water.

2. After the baking soda is fully dissolved and diluted in clean water, soak the vegetables in baking soda water.

3. After soaking for about 15 minutes, take the vegetables out of baking soda and wash them in clean water.

Delicacies. 4 What does baking soda do.

Clean oil stains. Baking soda is alkaline, oil stains are acidic, alkaline baking soda can fully neutralize and dissolve acidic oil stains, and play a role in cleaning oil stains.

Baking soda can remove pesticide residues from vegetables.

Adding some vinegar or baking soda to the water can help wash away different kinds of pesticide residues. However, for common pesticide residues, baking soda may be more effective. Baking soda and other edible alkali have a certain effect on the removal of organophosphorus pesticide residues, adding 10% edible alkali in clean water has the best removal effect, and the removal rate of dichlorvos can be achieved, however, the effect of edible alkali concentration is less than 2% or more than 15% and tap water.

Therefore, washing fruits and vegetables with alkaline water needs to be well controlled.
