Plant Bananas in Your Garden, Here's What Happens

[paulelliott]

Bananas are at 8:36. Skip everything else. Also it’s about banana peals, fertilizing the garden, not the actual fruit.

Most of these tips should have a *smallprint disclaimer somewhere. Baking soda in a soil that is not so acidic to begin with will stunt the growth of tomatoes, if you want to sweeten them you should give them more sunlight eventually by painting the wall behind them white or placing some aluminium foil behind. Bananas are best buried, not left on top of the soil, actually it's best to throw them in the compost and use that compost wherever needed. Only coffee grounds should be applied on the soil around the plants to give them caffeine to fight against aphids, if needed. Eggshells don't disintegrate by themselves, they need to be dried and made into powder, then mixed with the ground. Etc

I did the same thing and the squirrels left me a note wondered where was the ice cream and the Marchino cherries!

Red wine vinegar jars work great for watering potted plants. They have a pretty look and the top doesn’t let the water run out to quick.

Never did see what would happen when one plants bananas. After watching so long I figured it was just a “come on”. Knew it wasn’t going to grow but wondered if would repel something, repels me from watching another one. Good luck! ❤

egg shells do not keep slugs away, or stop them, they'll slide right through/over them

If you want to recommend using the nutrients in banana SKINS, don't illustrate it with pictures of whole bananas.

Fruit flies like bananas.”

Hee hee.

It’s now the 25th of October ‘23 and I wish I’d seen this video back in March when I first planted my seedlings.
I’ve known to put crushed egg shells around the plants for yrs now and it truly works, plus their calcium is great for the plants as well
I wish I’d known about the baking sofa around the tomato plants. I had 21 tomato plants this yr but hardly any tomatoes matured in time before the frost and snow came.
I’ll be sure to try a few of these tips in my garden next yr (that is if my terminal liver cancer hasn’t metastasized and taken me by then). Here’s praying it doesn’t.
Growing up and spending time gardening with mom is one of my more joyful memories I have of just the two of us away from my 7 siblings.
It’s a great way to feel centred and being grounded -pun intended.

Pallets are heavy, unsightly, loaded with splinters, and in most states, illegal to take. Instead of mounting pallets on the wall for tool storage, just install tool holders.

Now I can’t take a shower, an I can’t have a cold beer, the baby don’t have any diapers, you’ve choked all the chipmunks, it looks like the winos have been in there dumping there trash, we can’t have any french toast or cinnamon rolls and the pour old snails are getting cut up . And last we don’t have any forks and spoons to eat with . But the worst we don’t have any vintager to can with . Then we can’t have no coffee because we don’t have filters or clean any thing because we don’t have any paper towels . Then it looks like a bunch of monkeys had a party in the garden with the winos . Wow great video great ideas I like them but I couldn’t help myself with the sarcasm ! The only thing I left out was the storage containers and the baking soda but we don’t have to worry we’re gonna have to go to the store now any way ! You can make a copper ring from old house wire put it around the bottom of your tomato plants in the dirt it will keep them from getting blite . And don’t let the women folks in on that certain time of the month I don’t know how that works . But the cucumber plants look like you dumped hot water on them and they die . My grandma always grew a garden from 8 years old up to teen age I would spend a week or two with her on my summer break . That’s how I know great info we all need to be prepared to grow a garden with the way things are . She even showed me a bunch of different wild plants you can eat . Sassafras tree roots for making tea . Even Tabasco spit as a natural antiseptic ! Sounds sick but it beats gange green ! Thanks for the great advice I hope I left you some you can use as well !

I came up with my own idea of keeping snails / slugs away. ** I have 4' x 16' raised boxes**
I was at a yard sale one day and someone was selling a brand new unopen box of carpet tacks.... You know the one that are on 4 foot long wood strips that nails to the floor for catching carpet when the carpet is being installed.

I nailed the carpet tack strips on the top of the raised boxes. For those who may not have raised boxes, you can always cut the wood strips to size and place them on the dirt. Snails / slugs sure hate sharp nails. ** Side note: I have used eggshells and do wor. However, after some watering or even rain these eggshells eventually disappear. - There is one other trick one could do. to deter snails and insects. Grind up hot peppers with water in a blender. Filter out the remnants of the peppers with a coffee filter and pour the water in a large jar. Mix approx 4-8 onces of the hot pepper *juice* and mix one gallon of waterin a garden sprayer. Spray your plants. The hot pepper does NOT hurt the plants but does deter insects for a week or two, depening on rain and weather.

Plant feathers in your gardens see how many chickens you can grow.

This video has a high level of Monty Python humour: this guy promotes plastic forks and wine bottle planting, using diapers and plastic bottles.

Thanks for information. I use old face masks in the bottom of my pots. You can soak your eggshells in water and a few drops of peppermint oil to deter rodents

I planted a banana in a pot on my back porch and a possum stole it. I saw in on my security camera. It pulled it out of the pot and ran away with it.

This video lowered my I.Q by at least 50 points, I was an idiot to begin with, I thought you could plant bananas

[fortisetfelix]

@9:20 - adding lime and reducing fertilizer also increases sweetness in tomatoes. I learned that little deal only this spring and it works like magic for sweetened tomatoes. For real.

We put banana peels, coffee grounds and egg shells in the compost pile

Mushrooms do not harm plants. Mycelial growth in the soil has shown to help strengthen most plants...certain "molds" most definitely will harm your plants
