Using fruit peels to make compost for watering flowers: the benefits for growing plants really are many

Eating fruit not only adds rich nutrition but can also beautify and nourish the skin, but did you know that turning fruit peels into flower fertiliser is also super good, and can stop leaves from turning yellow and make flowers bloom more, truly making plants burst out of their pots in no time! Making flower fertiliser from fruit peels also saves you the money of buying fertiliser!

Banana peel

Banana peel is rich in phosphorus and potassium, which can help flowering plants produce more flowers. Turning banana peel into flower fertiliser is also simple: just sun-dry the banana peel until it crumbles at a pinch, then grind the banana peel into powder, which helps the plants absorb it, then dig a few small holes around the edge of the pot, sprinkle the banana powder in, then sprinkle in some soil; basically once a month is enough.

Pineapple peel

Fermented pineapple peel fertiliser can make the flowers of acid-loving plants grow more and more vigorously. To make pineapple peel into flower fertiliser, first find a sealed container, then put the peels in, with pineapple peel filling one quarter of the container, then add water and brown sugar at 10:1, then place it in a spot with good sunlight, and after about two months it will be fermented. When watering flowers, mix one bottle cap of the fertiliser with one litre of water and water the plants with it.

Orange peel

Use orange peel to make compost for watering flowers, letting your plants grow and stopping the leaves from turning yellow. To make compost with orange peel, you need to cut the orange peel into shreds, find a sealed container, put the orange peel in, add water, then leave it out in the sun, and every few days loosen the lid a little to let the gas out; after about one month it is ready. When watering, water the flowers with the finished compost and water at a 1: ratio.
