Any summer resident should use the winter period with maximum benefit: it is necessary to study not only useful theoretical material, but also collect useful fertilizers.
They can be formed using ordinary food waste.
Sometimes we don’t even know how much valuable fertilizer we thoughtlessly throw into the trash, explains Anastasia Kovrizhnykh, an expert at the online publication BelNovosti, a landscape designer and agronomist.
What options are worth paying attention to?
Tea bags, tea leaves and coffee grounds
All of the listed components will be an excellent component for a compost pit or can be used as independent fertilizer.
Before harvesting, make sure your waste is thoroughly dried to prevent it from becoming a source of mold.
Potato peel
Many people know that this is almost the most effective fertilizer for berry bushes. Therefore, it is also worth stocking up on the component.
The peel is thoroughly dried. Afterwards, some can be kept whole, and some can be reduced to a powder state.
Onion peel
This is an incredibly valuable component that can be used to create natural remedies against pests and diseases.
Besides, the husk is quite easy to store.
Other options
It is worth leaving the husks of the seeds if they were prepared without salt. It makes sense to prepare more eggshells, as this is an incredibly valuable fertilizer.
It is worth paying attention to the peels of bananas, lemons and oranges.
