Transform your magnolia with banana peels

Magnolias demand appropriate fertilizer. The plant need many nutrients to generate a lot of blossoms and preserve a strong root system, thus this is absolutely important.

Fertilizing magnolia

Frequent fertilizing also helps flower buds grow, which increases their abundance in next seasons. The magnolia can blossom less and its leaves might fade and fall off without enough nourishment.

Choosing fertilizers high in potassium and phosphorus can help the plant to be strong and produce plenty of flowers. You can thus make advantage of easily prepared natural homemade fertilizers as well as ready-mixed fertilizers.

Using banana peels is one of the less well-known but rather successful ways for naturally fertilizing magnolias. profuse in potassium, phosphorous, calcium, and magnesium, they nourish the plant and support profuse blossoming.

Use banana peels

Cut two bananas' peels into smaller pieces then arrange them in a quart jar to make banana peel fertilizer.

Pour warm water over them then, let the nutrients soak into the liquid for 48 hours. Dilute the water at a 1:1 ratio then water the magnolia at the base.

From March to August, once every two weeks is ideal to apply banana peel fertilizer. Regular fertilizing can help the magnolia to have more floral buds and healthier, greener foliage.
