Can banana peel water be used to water succulent plants?

Banana peel water can be used to water succulents. Generally, banana peels will ferment with water, and various nutrients will be produced after fermentation. These nutrients will promote the growth of succulents and can replenish nutrients for the plants in time.

Succulents cannot be watered directly with banana peel water. The concentration of banana peel water before use is relatively high. Generally, direct use will easily burn the roots of succulents, so water needs to be added to neutralize it when using it. Generally, it can be used once a week.

The advantages and disadvantages of using banana peels to water succulents
