7 Natural Fertilizers

 7 Natural Fertilizers That Promote Plant Growth



We know that chemicals are toxic and we want to make sure there are no products in our lives. That’s why people these days choose natural lifestyles - they understand how important this is to their health! So now you can find more options than all kinds of "organic lifestyle" sections produced in supermarkets.


One of the most important aspects of organic farming is to ensure that all-natural fertilizers are present in their soil. Many types and grades are available, so you can find one that best suits your needs, whether it is a heavy or light application ratio!


Here are 7 natural fertilizers you can use to promote plant growth:


1. Banana skins


You can find bananas in the markets all year round. A house without them is rare, or at least three uneaten houses a week! If your skin is not used to making things like banana tea or banana bread (which is also known to be an excellent source of potassium, compost it in your soil for plants that need more nutrients than just plain water.


If you return your skin to the soil after composting, it will provide nutrients such as potassium that will help plant growth. Nitrogen and Calcium for our Vegetables for Strong Root Growth!


2. Coffee grounds


Stop throwing your coffee grounds out after brewing a large pot of joe. Instead, use them as organic horticultural fertilizer and add some nutrients to the soil in your garden or flowerbed! The rich mineral content helps make great vegetables like tomatoes and roses with the beautiful flowers you love!


3. Grass & Weeds


Did you know that mowing the lawn is the best way to add organic fertilizer? The grass is rich in nutrients, and when diluted in water the liquid can be set aside for about two days before being drained. It is high in nitrogen, oxygen, and phosphorus - in fact, it can do nothing!


After you spray them on the soil, your grass can do significant things for your organic gardening. You are allowed to add weeds because they break down easily and benefit the soil! So what are you waiting for?


4. Fertilizer


Manure is one of the oldest methods of composting the land. It provides your plants with nutrients including potassium, nitrogen, and phosphorus, which are essential for plant growth and development or reproduction! However, keep in mind that you should only use manure from livestock as not all animals produce enough.


5. Bone meal compost


A bone meal is a great way to fertilize your plants without risking damaging their roots. If you do not have enough time and money for expensive outdoor gardening, you can use it as indoor compost!

Bone meal has been proven by scientists around the world to help plant growth, root growth, and flower bud development.


6. Eggshells


Eggshells are an amazing source of nutrients! You get all the nutritional benefits from a fertilizer without spending money on lime. When broken eggshells combine calcium, potassium, and some phosphorus into one cup, they are rich in minerals and your plants need to be healthy too! For extra stimulants, you can also add them as compost tea!


7. Fish broth compost


Yes! You can create a green garden without paying for expensive produce. Fish and by-products will enrich your soil with a healthy N-P-K ratio of 5 to 2 - if you ignore it.
