Banana Peel Fertilizer Recipe:

Ingredients:

• 2-3 ripe banana peels
• 1-liter water
• A large bottle with a lid

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Peels: After enjoying your bananas, take the peels and chop them into small pieces to increase their surface area.
2. Place in Bottle: Put the chopped banana peels inside a clean bottle.
3. Add Water: Pour about 1 liter of water into the bottle, covering the peels entirely.
4. Seal and Steep: Close the bottle tightly and let it sit in a cool, dry place for 2-3 days. This allows the nutrients (especially potassium) from the banana peels to infuse into the water.
5. Use as Fertilizer: After the steeping period, strain the liquid and discard the solids (you can compost them!). Pour the liquid directly onto your plants’ soil, using it as a natural fertilizer. Repeat this process every 2 weeks for healthier, greener plants.

Bonus Tip: You can also bury the banana peel pieces directly into your garden soil as they decompose naturally and enrich the soil with nutrients.

This easy banana peel fertilizer is eco-friendly and a great way to boost your plant’s growth!
