Homemake organic fertilizer


Nitrogen (N) – nitrogen is largely responsible for the growth of leaves on the plant.
Phosphorus (P) – Phosphorus is largely responsible for root growth and flower and fruit development. Necessary for blooms, fruiting and healthy roots.
Potassium (K) – Potassium is a nutrient that helps the overall functions of the plant perform correctly with strong roots. It helps with the flow of nutrients and water in a plant, causing them to be more drought and pest resistant. This is the main mineral found in banana peels.
Calcium- Helps with the breakdown of other necessary nutrients like nitrogen in the soil. Necessary for proper root and stem growth.
Magnesium- Helps with the production of chlorophyll. Keeping plants green.

Banana or Avocado peels is rich of potassium.
Banana Peel Fertilizer ratio is (0 - 3 -42).
Dry that for long term or use raw for 48 hours.
There is no Nitrogen, Magnesium, Calcium, sodium.
Eggshell- rich Calcium 95% Calciumcarbonate (CaCO3) and some Magnesium Carbonate.
so, brake down with white vinegar to get Calcium.

Knowing the NPK values of a fertilizer can help you select one that is appropriate for the type of plant you are growing. For example, if you are growing leafy vegetables, you may want to apply a fertilizer that has a higher nitrogen number to encourage leafy growth. If you are growing flowers, you may want to apply a fertilizer that has a higher phosphorus number to encourage more blooms
