WASTES FROM HOME THAT CAN BE USED FOR YOUR GARDEN!

BANANA  PEEL:

Flatten a banana peel and bury it under one inch of soil at the base of a rosebush. the peel’s potassium feeds the plant and helps it resist disease...works for tomato plants too.

CRUSHED EGG SHELLS 

Eggshells are made up of primarily of calcium, which readily leaches into warm, acidic liquids like coffee, which has a PH between 4 and 5. Like a low dose of lime, the eggshells probably raised the PH slightly and mellowed its flavor. They also probably enriched the coffee with dietary calcium.

The calcium from eggshells moderates soil acidity while providing nutrients for plants. Tomatoes  have often a blossom end rot problem and that can be handled well with  a handful of eggshell meal worked into the planting site and, plenty of soil calcium reduces tip burn in cabbage, too.

One can use used coffee grounds in various places in your garden.

Coffee grounds are rich in nitrogen (approximately 1.45% nitrogen). They also contain magnesium, calcium, potassium, and other trace minerals.

 

• Worms love coffee grounds and add them a little every week. By adding too many, one is going to make it acidic which is bad for your worms. A cup or so of grounds per week for a small worm bin is perfect.
• Used coffee grounds in your compost bin. They would provide nitrogen for the composting.
• Add them to ground directly to the soil in your garden. You can scratch it into the top couple inches of soil, or just sprinkle the grounds on top and leave it alone.
• Make coffee ground "tea." Add one cup of used coffee grounds to a 10 ltr bucket of water. Let the "tea" stay for a few hours or overnight. You can use this concoction as a liquid fertilizer for garden and container plants. It also makes a great foliar feed.
