Help plants grow with 100% natural fertilizers, economically, without depleting the soil, using organic waste that is thrown away daily in the kitchen, such as: eggshells, vegetable remains, fruit peels, used coffee, or any other organic waste.

The purpose of the natural fertilizer is to provide our plants with extra nutrients that will help them grow healthier and stronger and give better fruits and flowers.

Here are 4 ways to do it.

  • EGG SHELLS:

Its calcium content is beneficial for plants, you must crush or powder with the husks and apply around it, it also has a double purpose, so you would be fertilizing and on the other hand chasing away the pest. You can also use them whole, but the effect is slower.

  • USED COFFEE:

Accumulate the coffee bean in order to use it as a fertilizer, this is a source of nitrogen that helps plants grow. You should try to use the borra that is fresh, not the one that has been fermented. You can use it: diluted in water, mixed with soil or applied around the plant.

  • REMAINS OF VEGETABLES:

Take advantage of the remains of vegetables and fruits. You should make a simple compost, with a wooden box, add the remains of vegetables and mix with soil, when decomposing you can apply it to the plant in the form of natural fertilizer.

  • BANANA PEELS:

This option provides potassium to the plants, which you identify because the leaves exhibit a yellowish and curly color. You can boil the shells cut into small squares for about 15 minutes, let cool, proceed to spray the plant. Another alternative is to cut the shell and bury it in the pot or directly to the ground in order to release the minerals it has.

The most important thing is that you are helping to improve the environment, protecting the soil and at the same time protecting your pocket by using organic waste that goes to waste every day.
