Using banana peel

You must know that bananas are rich in potassium. Apparently, the banana peel is also one of the ingredients for liquid organic fertilizer that you can make yourself at home. Fertilizers that are high in potassium are ideal for fertilizing flower and fruit crops, such as tomato squash. However, liquid organic fertilizer from banana peels is not suitable for leafy vegetable plants, such as spinach or lettuce.

You can make this liquid organic fertilizer using a glass jar. Fill with water, then soak the banana peel clean. Close the jar tightly and leave for 3 days. If you have, you can start using it for your favorite plants.

Egg shell

Egg shells are a great source of calcium and contain as little potassium as bananas. Just crushed, then put in a jar or closed container that has been filled with water. Leave it for 1 week before using it as a liquid organic fertilizer for plants. This type of fertilizer is ideal for tomatoes and indoor plants. This is because the calcium content is good for preventing root rot.

Use vegetable broth

After boiling the vegetables for the family to enjoy, don't throw away the rest of the boiled water first, okay? Allow the water to cool in the pan, then dilute it again with water. Use this liquid organic fertilizer on plants or organic plants at home. Usually, liquid organic fertilizer from boiled vegetable broth has a rather smelly smell, so ideally it is used only once. The content of vitamins and nutrients from the stew is very good for fertilizing plants, you know!
