my girl poured her diva cup out into her plant and now the plant’s alive again her pussy voodoo
I have questions…
this is green consciousness and ecofeminism
Period blood is full of nutrients and can act as a plant fertilizer. Which isn’t much help if you use disposables like pads and tampons, BUT if you use moon cups you can pour them onto your plant OR if you use reusable pads you can soak/rinse them in warm water before you wash them and pour that water onto your plants.
Stop being scared of ya own blood 2k18. Do magic. Revive plants. Curse enemies.
Woah, plant tip of the year!
Wonderful fuckin post
To clarify
Blood contains nitrogen, potassium, and phosphorus. All three of these macronutrients are good for plants.
This is a great alternative to blood meal fertilizers. While blood meal contains large quantities of nitrogen, some gardeners do not agree with its use due to potential animal cruelty nuances. For anyone who feels that this is gross, please understand that organic fertilizer is usually full of poo – this is hardly different than period blood. They’re both great fertilizers that are produced in different ways.
ok but won’t it introduce pathogenes to plants and soil?
@thirdfloorgarden Excellent question! The answer in general is no (assuming that the person does not have any type of menstrual disease or a disease like HIV). Menstrual blood also does not contain elements that are necessary for coagulation. Before you decide to use it as a fertilizer for your plants, I recommend understanding it, and if you have a menstrual disease/STD, as a preliminary step.
This is so disgusting
Interesting. But if rather my plant die before my apartment smells like period blood
@fadeinto-gucci You add water to it to. The nutrients is absorbed by your plants anyway. I’d also like to highlight that it’s only 2-4 teaspoons of blood in general, which is hardly enough to create any strong odor that lingers.
To anyone who keeps sending me messages about how menstrual blood is not sustainable for farmers
I realize this – this isn’t intended to sustain farmers with acres of crops. A women couldn’t produce that much menstrual blood within a given cycle.
