Epsom Salt Epsom salts are excellent for soil health, especially if there’s a magnesium imbalance causing low pH levels. Dilute Epsom salt with water and spray it on plants to boost pH levels and provide essential nutrients.
Raw Egg Boost plant growth by planting a raw egg alongside the soil in pots. As the egg decomposes over time, it acts as a natural fertilizer, enriching the soil and promoting healthy seedling growth.
Regular Composting Regularly incorporating compost into your soil enriches it further, improving soil structure, water retention, and disease resistance. Compost provides essential nutrients for plants, especially before the growing season.
Create a Small Compost Interested in making your own compact compost? It’s easier than you think! An indoor composting method is ideal for those with limited yard space. Start by grinding up waste in a mixer, drain excess water, and place it in a container with soil. Stir regularly. After a couple of weeks, start a new container the same way. With two containers in rotation, you’ll always have fresh compost to nourish your plants. Plus, these bins can be kept indoors or outdoors as needed.
With these simple DIY methods, you can enrich your soil and ensure your plants thrive without breaking the bank. 🌱💰
