Homemade plant feeding ideas can sound helpful, but most plants do best with healthy soil first and gentle feeding second. 🌿
What I’ve learned:
☕ coffee grounds are better composted than dumped straight around roots
🥚 eggshells break down slowly, so they’re not a fast calcium fix
🍌 banana peels add organic matter over time, but they are not a complete fertilizer
🧪 for hungry vegetables, compost plus a balanced fertilizer usually works better than random kitchen scraps
Simple and consistent usually beats complicated every time.
