It&#8217;s the gardener&#8217;s trick to get vigorous and lush plants!"},"content":{"rendered":"\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"block-b335d546-eac8-46c2-8439-964d1c9d5468\">Lemon is one of the citrus fruits that many of us use at home. That&#8217;s why lemon peels are one of the most common kitchen waste. Instead of throwing them away, &nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>reuse them to fertilize your garden or the plants in your garden<\/strong>&nbsp;. In fact, plants can benefit greatly from organic citrus residues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"block-d8c7072a-2d14-43ff-88c6-58ee4177e050\">Fertilizing with lemon peel provides microorganisms that increase the amount and permeability of nutrients in the soil. It also helps to moisten the substances and improve water penetration and soil aeration. This fertilization method also helps&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>conserve the water that plants need for their development<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;and helps reduce soil deterioration. Here are&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>the benefits of using lemon zest in your garden<\/strong>&nbsp;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/abuelaenlacocina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/image-1-4.jpg.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3535\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"block-efbf72aa-8aab-4139-ac73-c59018a0c56e\">Using lemon peel on plants: 4 good reasons to do it<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"block-939e20f4-f52e-42d3-891f-967502d5c361\">Compost preparation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"block-d1587538-6eac-4d2a-b611-307a9706c23b\">Thanks to their nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium content, lemon peels provide the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.mesrecettes.info\/la-biere-dans-les-plantes-encore-mieux-que-leau-arrosez-les-comme-ca\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">garden<\/a>&nbsp;&nbsp;with nutrients that will enrich the compost. As this citrus has a good aroma, it will perfume the compost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"block-b8b12c19-67de-42e5-80e6-dc4418f6bde9\">All you have to do is&nbsp;<strong>bury the lemon peels with all the organic waste in the compost<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;and mix regularly. You can chop lemon peels, which are converted into nutrients more quickly. Adding them to your plants will make them&nbsp;<strong>strong and lush<\/strong>&nbsp;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"block-7edd2fad-057f-4d5a-b6b7-86e3cf5260b6\">insect hunting<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"block-e1708ced-d54b-47e9-8723-ae384822b456\">Thanks to the strong smell of these citrus fruits, it will help you eliminate certain pests and insects when you add them to the compost. This includes ants that can climb the stem and threaten plant growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"block-e19c0de8-a99d-4a4b-aeae-dda39f0498a5\">To do this, cut the lemon zest into small pieces and sprinkle them around the plants. This will ensure that no insects get too close.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"block-86bb31bb-b26f-4532-922a-eef401ace766\">acidic soil<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"block-bec499a6-69f6-4a35-b7f7-f4e51a4f5619\">If you are going to plant legumes, it will be very useful to use lemon peels, as they increase the pH of the soil, making it more acidic. All you have to do is let the lemon peels dry and then grind them by hand to a very fine powder. Next, add the powder to your compost or sprinkle it around your plants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"block-fb775a8c-27c6-4988-ab45-7aa09c3a0aca\">Parasite removal<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"block-6c9db8e7-ffd2-469e-888d-8a8d9520f523\">Aphids are one of the most common pests in gardens. Although lemon peel is not as effective as insecticides, it helps prevent and treat pests naturally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"block-338ddeb7-5f85-432b-8009-56bfff18ab79\">It&#8217;s very simple: just boil lemon peel with water and spray the solution on the parts of the plants affected by aphids. You can also&nbsp;<strong>use essential oils<\/strong>&nbsp;that will repel insects and parasites.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lemon is one of the citrus fruits that many of us use at home.
