The flowers at home grew rapidly after "eating" banana peels, and I don't have to go out to buy fertilizer anymore!

Banana peels become organic fertilizer, and the leaves are so green that they drip oil!

We can think of bananas as a kind of organic matter, and the leftover banana peels are rich in elements needed for plant growth. They can be cut into pieces, fermented with water and used as nutrient solution, or they can be dried and crushed and added to the soil as nutrients.

Using banana peels to make nutrient solution:

1. Cut the banana peel into pieces

The smaller the banana peels are, the better. This will speed up their decomposition and make them work faster.

2. Put it into the container and let it mature

Prepare a larger container, such as a large mineral water barrel, Coke bottle, etc. Rinse it clean, fill it with a quarter of pure water, put the cut banana peels into the container, and seal it. Open the container for ventilation every once in a while to avoid being unable to open the container after it is fully decomposed.

3. Fermentation is complete and ready for use

The banana peel will complete fermentation in about a month, and the liquid in the container can then be used as a nutrient solution for the flowers. Add a little of it every time you water the flowers, but be careful not to add too much, otherwise it will easily burn the roots.

Drying and crushing:

1. Baking method

Use your oven or a frying pan to dry the banana peels until they turn black.

Crush the dried banana peels with a rolling pin or garlic crusher. The most convenient way is to grind them into powder directly with a soy milk maker. The rich can choose a dehydrator, which is more convenient.

Mix the prepared banana peel powder with flower soil and use it, or poke a few holes in the soil of the flowerpot and pour the banana peel powder into the holes.

After using banana peels, the flowers at home get rich phosphorus fertilizer and potassium fertilizer, so they grow more vigorously and bloom more brightly!

2. Exposure method

Just like we like to throw the orange peels on the balcony to dry in the sun when we eat oranges in winter, we can also leave the banana peels to the sunlight and let them receive the baptism of nature.

After ten days or half a month, the banana peels will be dried. We can use the tools mentioned above to turn them into powder for further use.

You can also use banana peels like this!

Huahua usually loves to eat bananas, which are rich in nutrients and have many health benefits. In fact, as a protective shell, banana peels can be used in all aspects of our lives. In addition to being used as fertilizer as mentioned above, banana peels have far more functions than that! Let’s take a look at Huahua’s discovery!

1. Put it together with other fruits

Everyone should know that bananas can ripen other fruits. Bananas release ethylene, a substance that accelerates the ripening of the fruit. Normally we can put bananas together with kiwis and persimmons which are not easy to ripen.

2. Prevent skin itching

With the arrival of spring and summer, there will be more and more insects outdoors. The banana peel contained in banana peels can help us effectively repel mosquitoes. Applying banana peels before going out can avoid the pain of bites. For other itchy skin symptoms, you can also try rubbing them with banana peels!

3. Relieve oral ulcers

Banana peel is actually a very good traditional Chinese medicine. It can be put together with another traditional Chinese medicine: Huotanmu (also called Huotanxing), and then add an appropriate amount of brown sugar to treat oral ulcers.

4. Banana peel water to sober up

Boil banana peels in water for ten minutes, then drink the water after it cools down. It can help you sober up. If you find the taste unpleasant, you can add some honey.

5. Shoe polishing

Banana peels can be used to polish leather shoes, bags and other leather products to extend their life and maintain their gloss.

6. Polishing Silverware

Banana peels can be used to polish silver. If you use silver tableware or wear silver jewelry at home, you can wipe any oxidized silver with banana peel.
