Ama-rose avame ukuba yinkanyezi engadini, kodwa ukuze achume ngempela, adinga izimo ezengeziwe. Umanyolo udlala indima ebalulekile. Nakuba abaningi bethembele kumanyolo okhethekile othengiswayo, imfihlo elula izosiza ama-rose akho ukuba achume: ukumnika i-alfalfa. Ochwepheshe batusa kakhulu le ngxube yezinto eziphilayo njengoba ikhuthaza impilo enhle.ukukhula kwesihlahla se-rose, amaqabunga aluhlaza, kanye nezimbali eziningi.
U-Alex Biggart, umphathi womkhiqizo we-123 Flowers, uthi, “Uma ufuna ama-rose aqhakaze cishe ngokushesha, njengokungathi akhishwe engadini yasebukhosini, itiye le-alfalfa liyisinqumo esifanele. Licebile ngezikhuthazi zemvelo zokukhula, linikeza ama-rose konke akudingayo ukuze achume. Kufana nokunikeza isitshalo i-smoothie yokudla okumnandi!” Ngakho-ke yini ekhethekile ngalesi sithako? I-Alfalfa iyi-legume ecebile ngezakhamzimba eziningi ezibalulekile, okuhlanganisa i-triacontanol, “isikhuthazi zemvelo esinamandla sokukhula.”
Amalungu omphakathi wethu angazuza ngezipesheli ezikhethekile, ukukhushulwa, kanye nokukhangisa okuvela kithi nakubalingani bethu. Ungangena kusayithi nganoma yisiphi isikhathi. Funda inqubomgomo yethu yobumfihlo.
Uma itiye selilungisiwe, leli khemikhali liyakhishwa, linikeze isihlahla sama-rose ingxube yamaminerali abalulekile nama-hormone ezitshalo akhuthaza ukukhula okunamandla nokuqhakaza kwezimbali.
U-Alex wengeze wathi: “I-Triacontanolisebenza njengesikhuthazi sezimbali. Isheshisa ukukhula, iqinise iziqu, futhi yandisa kakhulu inani lezimbali. Uzoqala ukubona izinguquko phakathi namasonto ambalwa.
Ukwenza itiye le-alfalfa kulula kakhulu futhi kudinga izithako ezimbalwa eziyisisekelo—izinkomishi eziyi-10 kuya kweziyi-12 zempuphu ye-alfalfa noma ama-granule kanye nama-galoni angu-32 amanzi.
Sizosebenzisa ulwazi lwakho lokubhalisa ukukunikeza okuqukethwe ngokuvumelana nemvume yakho nokujulisa ukuqonda kwethu izidingo zakho. Lokhu kungafaka phakathi ukukhangisa okuvela kithi kanye nabantu besithathu, okuboniswe ngokusekelwe ekuqondeni kwethu izidingo zakho. Ungazikhipha ohlwini nganoma yisiphi isikhathi. Sicela ubuyekeze inqubomgomo yethu yobumfihlo.
U-Alex wabelane ngendlela yakhe, echaza, “Hlanganisa i-alfalfa namanzi esitsheni esikhulu sepulasitiki bese ucwilisa izinsuku ezine kuya kwezinhlanu, uvuselela ngezikhathi ezithile. Ngesikhathi sokucwilisa, izakhamzimba ziyaqhekeka futhi zincibilike emanzini, okudala i-tonic enamandla yamakhambi.”
Ngemva kokulungisa itiye, lithele ngqo phansi kwesihlahla se-rose. U-Alex uyachaza, “Igaloni elilodwa letiye lilungele isihlahla ngasinye esikhulu se-rose, kanti ezinhlotsheni ezincane, cishe ingxenye yesithathu yanele. Uzobona maduze nje amaqabunga eba luhlaza okotshani futhi izitshalo ziqine.”
Ukuze kuthuthukiswe umphumela, u-Alex uncoma ukwengeza i-magnesium sulfate (usawoti we-Epsom) engxubeni. Uyachaza, “Ukwengeza i-magnesium sulfate kukhuthaza ukumuncwa kwe-magnesium, kanti inani elincane le-chelated iron lingakhuthaza ukukhiqizwa kwe-chlorophyll, okusiza ama-roses ukuba akhule ngamandla. Lena yindlela enhle yokuthuthukisa ukukhula kwama-rose ngokwemvelo.”
Isikhathi sibalulekile ukuze kutholakale imiphumela emihle kakhulu. Izikhathi ezinhle kakhulu zokufaka i-alfalfa infusion kusentwasahlobo, lapho ama-rose evuka ebuthongweni, kanye nasekupheleni kwehlobo, ukuze kuqiniswe ukuqina kwawo ngaphambi kokuba kufike ubusika.
Ukuze uthole “imiphumela emangalisayo,” kwanele ukondla ama-rose kabili ngonyaka, kodwa uma ekhula kabi, ungawapha futhi phakathi nehlobo.
"Kulabo abafuna imfihlo yokushintsha indlela yabo yokunakekela ama-rose, itiye le-alfalfa lingaba yisisombululo," kusho u-Alex.
"Lena indlela yokunakekela elula nemvelo ezonikeza ama-rose akho konke akudingayo. Uma ufuna izimbali ezinhle, leli cebiso libalulekile!"
