Don’t waste it anymore, throwing it away is a mistake: use it for balcony and garden plants.
Stop throwing away! Reusing is essential for the plants on your balcony and in your garden.
Why throw something away when you can give it a new life? Discover this clever gardening method to nourish the plants on your balcony and in your garden.
Reusing is a valuable practice, especially in these difficult times. Waste harms the environment, but some objects have multiple uses, such as the seed of a well-known fruit. Experts are now turning this seed into a powerful fertilizer and nutrient for plants. Its benefits are recognized worldwide. Here’s why you should use it and how to apply it to the plants in your balcony and garden.
A natural fertilizer for your balcony and garden.
There are many natural fertilizers for your plants that do not produce any waste. Take avocado as an example. After enjoying the fruit, most people discard the pit, but that pit is actually an inexhaustible source of nutrients that can revitalize plants.
How to use it effectively
Professional gardeners advise saving the core, washing it thoroughly and drying it. You can then blend it or grate it manually. The result is a nutrient-rich paste, packed with minerals and vitamins, perfect for boosting plant health. You can mix it directly into soil or dilute it in water, letting it sit overnight before straining it to make a concentrated plant tonic. For even better results, consider adding banana peels or leftover onions.
The benefits of avocado seeds.
Never throw away an avocado pit! Many gardeners save it to naturally nourish their plants. While avocado pulp is commonly consumed, the pit is often neglected, despite its high content of fatty acids, phytosterols and essential amino acids. To prepare it, the outer skin is removed, allowed to dry and then grated to obtain a fertilizer rich in vitamins and minerals.
Although avocados are not always easy to find, when you buy one make sure it is ripe so that you can use both the fruit and the pit. This will provide a nutritious treat and an excellent fertilizer for your plants.
Before throwing away natural materials, consult a trusted gardener who can suggest alternative, environmentally friendly uses.
