A farmer digs a hole for planting tomatoes and places an egg and a banana inside. This might sound strange, but the results are amazing! Just a few days after planting, you start to see signs of life. This method is actually quite popular.
A video of this farmer’s unique technique has gone viral, getting almost 1.2 million views worldwide. In the video, you can see the farmer using a special method to fertilize his vegetables.
He digs a hole, puts an uncooked egg and a banana (still in its peel) inside, plants the tomato seedlings on top, and then covers everything with dirt.
As the egg and banana decompose, they release what people call “magic nutrients.” These nutrients are essential for the growth of vegetable seeds. Instead of using harmful chemical fertilizers, the farmer is using a natural method with just two simple items.
Everyone knows that growing fruits and vegetables has become more difficult. They often lose flavor and appearance due to environmental issues like the deterioration of the ozone layer. Because of this, many farmers use a lot of fertilizers.
The problem is, these fertilizers are often synthetic. Overusing chemical fertilizers can “poison” the soil, fruits, and vegetables, which is harmful to consumers. While these chemicals can make fruits and vegetables look better and grow faster, they can also ruin the flavor and eventually harm the crops.
Plants weakened by chemical fertilizers become less resistant to pests and diseases, making it harder for them to grow and thrive.
That’s why using natural fertilizers is recommended whenever possible.
As the example with the egg and banana shows, natural fertilizers like ash, manure, and vegetable waste can be very effective and affordable.
