This natural-born flower vessel is used to grow orchids, with big, sturdy roots

Although orchids are not as showy as roses, they never compete for fame and fortune, so they are loved by a wide range of flower enthusiasts, who all like to treat orchids as a beautiful sight, placing them on the balcony and caring for them attentively. What we are introducing today is a natural-born "universal vessel"; no matter whether the plant is wilting or failing to grow roots, using it to grow orchids makes the roots big and sturdy.

This "universal vessel" is actually the banana peel commonly seen in our daily lives. The components banana peels are rich in include magnesium, phosphorus, zinc, and so on. It can be used to grow orchids, and the orchids will grow very vigorously; any problem of yellowing, wilting leaves can be readily solved. So, what is the process of making fertilizer from banana peels like? It is actually very simple; just make it according to the following steps.

Step one: Prepare the "grain"

First, prepare about six banana peels. If the outer surface has other things on it, it needs to be washed a little to avoid carrying bacteria. After washing, do not touch them yet; spread them out on a clean wooden board, because we still need one particularly important thing - a fruit knife. The fruit knife must be clean and sterile, to avoid bacteria breeding and being introduced into the banana peels.

If you cannot be sure whether the fruit knife is sterile, you can use a fungicide to coat the blade for disinfection, and then you can cut the banana peels. Cut them finely; a size similar to a fingernail is fine.

Step two: Prepare the "basin"

After cutting, you need to find something to put them in, preferably a basin that allows them to be spread flat. Wipe the basin with carbendazim, and after it dries, throw the cut banana peels into the basin and spread them out, then place them under the sun to bake until dry.

If you cannot find a basin that allows flat spreading, you can also use a wooden board, a new wooden board, which must not have the slightest bit of dirt on it. Do not use moldy ones, and do not use damp ones either, to avoid carrying bacteria.

Step three: Prepare for "use"

At this step, everything is ready except for the east wind. After the banana peels are dried in the sun, use a grinding machine to grind them all into powder, then according to the amount of two spoonfuls per orchid, mix with 600 ml of water and spray, once a week. Note that the spray bottle must be rust-free; it is best to sterilize it at high temperature before each spraying.

The above is the method of making banana peel powder and mixing it with water. There is another method, simple to operate: chop the banana peels into pieces, the finer the better, then dig a small hole in the soil of the orchid pot, fill the banana peels into it, and cover it with the soil that was dug out.

But banana peels cannot be used as the main fertilizer for a long time; using them occasionally is enough. Moreover, when buried in the soil they are not easy to decompose and will give off some peculiar smell. Flower enthusiasts who love cleanliness can use an organic nutrient solution, 1 drop mixed with 600 times water for spraying, once every ten days, which can promote flower bud formation and lengthen the flowering period.

The above is the method of using banana peels to make orchid fertilizer. This kind of fertilizer, a natural-born "universal vessel", used to grow orchids makes the flowers bloom beautifully; there is no need to fear any wilting or yellowing.
