Do your plants really need potassium? It turns out they do, that’s why most fertilizer blends incorporate potassium. In previous blog posts we have looked at how to make homemade organic fertilizer, how to make 3 diy banana peel fertilizers and even how to make banana tea fertilizer. Now that you have gotten the hang of things making this diy potassium rich plant fertilizer should be a walk in the park.
Honestly, speaking from experience these homemade fertilizers work just as well if not better than the manufactured ones. We are essentially using all natural nutrients to feed back to the growing plants, it doesn’t get any better than that. All plants need potassium in order to facilitate proper growth and reproduction. Potassium is also vital when it comes to the trans-location of essential nutrients, including water as well as other substances from the roots of the plants through the stem and on to the leaves.
