⚠️ A Few Things to Keep in Mind:
- Always use organic bananas if possible — no pesticides = happier plants.
- Don’t bury the peel too deep — oxygen flow is still important.
- Watch for any signs of rot or fungus. If it appears, skip a week or reduce the size of the slice.
- This method works best for orchids grown in bark or loose media, not heavy soil.
🌺 Final Thoughts
In a world of high-tech gadgets and fancy fertilizers, sometimes the best plant hacks come from good old-fashioned wisdom — and a little slice of banana peel.
So next time you’re about to toss that peel in the trash, remember:
Your orchids might be craving it.
And if someone asks where you got the idea?
Tell them:
“My nana swears by it.”
