Having plants at home is undoubtedly pleasant and satisfying because they make the home environment much warmer and more welcoming, as well as cheerful, especially in the case of very colorful plants with flowers.

Obviously, all plants need care and attention, which means you have to spend a lot of time with them, water them when they need it, prune them when they get too big, put them in a bigger pot when they have grown too big, and so on until the pot has become too small to house them.

Then you also have to be good at detecting diseases or problems in order to cure them in time and prevent them from dying suddenly.

Natural compost for plants, how to make it at home

To keep them in the best health, you can buy products such as compost and more directly from plant stores so that they grow and become beautiful, bloom or bear beautiful fruits in a short time. Or you can also prepare wonderful products directly at home with food .

Many of these homemade products call for the use of bananas, which are fantastic for both fruit trees and flowers. If used during the produce season, being rich in potassium and many other nutrients, they can be very satisfying .

The banana preparation should be used to water the plants. Both in pots and in the garden, it is very effective for chili peppers, succulents, orchids and hydrangeas. The treatment should be repeated every 15 days, especially in summer, and once a month in winter and autumn.

Natural ingredients and preparation

The first thing to do is to get some banana peels. You need five to get the right amount of compost. So if you don’t use a lot of them in a day or a week, it’s a good idea to store them in the freezer every time you use them throughout the year so you always have them available when you need them .

At this point, you can prepare the liquid fertilizer by cutting the skins into small pieces on a cutting board. Next, fill a pot with water , bring it to a boil , when it boils, add the skins and let it boil for 15 minutes.

Next, turn off the heat and let them cool in the pan. Once cool, the peels can be pureed using a hand blender or any blender. The steeped liquid mixture is then strained and the tea is poured into a plastic bottle, which can then be stored. The liquid mixture can be used at any time to water plants.
