How to use it:
Dissolve 1 teaspoon of dry yeast in a liter of warm water.
Let it sit for 1 hour, then water your plants with it.
Why it works:
Yeast contains B vitamins and beneficial microbes that promote root development and soil health. It’s especially helpful for seedlings or weak plants.
How to use it:
Dilute a small amount of toothpaste (non-whitening, non-gel) in a large bucket of water.
Stir until dissolved.
Use it to water the soil, not the leaves.
Why it works:
Toothpaste contains calcium and baking soda, which can improve soil pH and provide trace minerals. However, this should be used very sparingly and only occasionally, as overuse may harm plants.
⚠️ Caution: Only use plain, non-fluoride toothpaste without added chemicals or whitening agents.
Always test homemade fertilizers on a small number of plants first to observe any reactions.
Use filtered or dechlorinated water when possible.
Apply natural fertilizers every 2–4 weeks, depending on the plant’s needs and growth stage.
Combine these natural ingredients with compost or organic mulch for best results.
You don’t need expensive products to give your plants the care they deserve. With just a few common ingredients from your kitchen — like aloe vera, citrus peels, or dry yeast — you can make eco-friendly, effective natural fertilizers that keep your garden healthy, green, and blooming.
Nature has already given you the tools. Now it’s time to put them to use!
