The idea came from Philly (@phillyjlay1). She has over 42,000 followers and another 283,000 likes on her TikTok.
She should know what she is talking about when it comes to living a more natural life.
The English lady is the author of The Natural Wellness Journal and host of a podcast, The Wellness Way.
In this post, she focused on some special plant food: “Organic tomato feed,” she said.
Hers was a wholly toxic-free approach: “No chemicals here. And waste produce,” she wrote.
Everything in her recipe used household waste, but it didn’t look very appetizing.
“So I keep all my banana skins in the fridge in a bag because it’s a bit horrible, with some eggshells.”
She chucked all the ingredients into a blender: “I’ve had a smoothie and I don’t want to waste all those beautiful nutrients,” she said.
“So I’ve added a load of rainwater. Banana skins are really full of potassium so the tomato plants just love them,” she added.
The eggshells were excellent too: “They have calcium so that is also really good for the soil.”
Once it had been thoroughly mixed, she couldn’t pretend it looked very attractive.
But it didn’t matter: this stuff worked.
“Oh, this looks bloody gross,” she exclaimed. But it was an excellent: “Fertilizer for my tomato plants without chemicals.”
She wasn’t finished yet: “So I’m just going to add that to a load more rainwater and dig that into my tomato bed.”
This commenter liked her idea: “Looks great for tomatoes,” they said.
