Empower Your Garden: Natural Fusion for Plant Growth
Egg shells and bananas
In the realm of plant care, the reliance on non-natural fertilizers laden with preservatives and chemicals is a common practice. Industry professionals, however, advocate for the use of natural fertilizers, emphasizing the abundance of properties and benefits found in everyday ingredients. Unveiling the synergy of two particular elements, when combined, creates a potent formula for the well-being of various plants, be it in the vegetable garden or the general garden.
Natural Ingredients as Plant Allies
Nature generously provides ingredients not only for consumption but also to nourish vegetable and garden plants. Two such ingredients, when harmoniously blended, act as a powerhouse to fortify and nurture plants.
The first ingredient is the often-overlooked eggshell, a rich source of calcium crucial for the vitality of all plant varieties. By simply drying them in the sun and subsequently grinding them, eggshells transform into a valuable resource known as eggshell flour. This can be used alone or in tandem with another key ingredient.
Eggshells on one side, banana peels on the other—two ingredients commonly consigned to the waste bin. Opting to preserve and intelligently combine them unleashes their potential as a formidable fertilizer for both the vegetable garden and the general garden.

These peels can be repurposed into a fertilizer by either placing small pieces directly into the soil or boiling them for an hour to create a nutrient-rich liquid.
