Clove oil contains eugenol, a compound with strong numbing effects. It’s perfect for temporarily easing toothache pain until you see a dentist.
The antibacterial properties of clove oil help fight germs in your mouth. It reduces infection risk and keeps the affected area clean and fresh.
Mix clove powder with honey or add it to smoothies, teas, or dishes for a subtle, aromatic flavor and its health benefits.
Maintain moderate watering for clove plants. Overwatering can lead to root rot, while underwatering may stunt growth. Water only when the soil feels dry.
Apply a balanced fertilizer every 6-8 weeks during the growing season. Avoid over-fertilization, as clove plants are sensitive to high nutrient levels.
Never apply clove oil directly to your skin or gums. Mix it with a carrier oil like coconut or olive oil to prevent irritation or burns.
Cloves are ready for harvest after 6-8 months. The flower buds turn bright red when mature. Handpick the cloves carefully to avoid damaging the plant.
