Mixing coffee grounds with banana peels can be a great alternative to buying fertilizer.


1. Get your ingredients ready: Keep your banana peels and coffee grounds. You don't need much - just begin with what you already have, like the coffee you drink every day and the bananas you eat sometimes.


2. Make the Blend:




Dry the banana peels by letting them dry out completely. After they are dry, cut them into small pieces.




Mix these pieces with wet or dry coffee grounds. Some individuals like to mix the dry ingredients until they become a smooth powder that can be easily spread around plants.




3. Use on Your Plants:




Apply the mixture directly onto the soil around your plants or mix it into the top layer of soil.




Nutrient Tea: Instead, soak the mix in water for a few days to make a nutrient-rich liquid fertilizer.




Advantages for Your Garden:




This organic fertilizer is great for fruit trees and plants that have flowers. It helps them grow more fruit and flowers. By using banana peels and coffee grounds, you can reduce waste and provide nutrients to your plants, which helps create a healthier environment.




Many gardeners enjoy this technique because it works well and is easy to use. It is a great way to enjoy gardening and help the environment. The next time you have coffee and a banana, consider keeping the leftovers. They could be great for your garden!
