To shine up the leaves
To shine up the leaves on your large indoor or outdoor plants, rub the inner part of the peel on the leaves. You’re feeding and cleaning them at the same time!
5. Send Bugs Off
To repel pests like fleas or aphids, you can bury some cut peels in the soil under the plant. Small pieces of dehydrated peel laid out on a platter will kill fleas with their enzymes. You may also turn the diluted tea recipe above into a spray and spritz your plants with it.
6. To stimulate seedlings
If you’re planting seeds outdoors, you can give them a little boost by adding a banana peel. For this, dig a trench 5 cm deep long enough to put the banana peel in it lengthwise. Lay the banana peels flat with the insides facing up, then place the seeds on top. Cover with a little well-aerated soil, water lightly, and do as usual to take care of the seedlings. With this enriched, well-drained soil, the seeds will sprout and benefit from the fertilizer created by the rotting banana peels.
