Go Bananas In The Garden


If you haven't been using banana peels in your garden, you're missing out  on the helpful nutrients that they can provide for your plants. Just take a look at the benefits they can bring.

  • Potassium: Helps plants grow strong roots, and enables good distribution of water and nutrients. It helps regulate plant enzymes and promotes the growth of stronger stems. This helps to create strong, sturdy disease resistant and pest resistant plants.
  • Phosphorus: Promotes healthy roots and shoots, and is absolutely essential for successful production of blossoms, pollen and fruit. Big and strong plants can't be grown without it.
  • Calcium: Is also a great help in creating strong root systems and stems. And it assists in breaking down soil nutrients such as nitrogen, and helps other minerals move through a plant’s system.
  • Magnesium: Is essential for healthy photosynthesis, without which no plant can thrive and be healthy.
