### 🧪 How to Use Banana Peel for Your Peace Lily
Here are two effective ways to use banana peel as a natural fertilizer for your peace lily:
#### 1. **Banana Peel Compost**
* Chop up banana peels into small pieces.
* Mix them into the top layer of the potting soil (avoid putting them too deep to prevent rotting).
* Water as usual. Over time, the nutrients will release slowly into the soil.
#### 2. **Banana Peel Tea**
* Soak one banana peel in a jar of water for 24–48 hours.
* Use the water to irrigate your peace lily once a week.
* This provides a gentle, nutrient-rich “tea” that promotes blooming and healthy foliage.

### 🪴 Additional Peace Lily Care Tips for Long-Term Blooming
To get the most out of this natural fertilizing method, pair it with good general care:
* **Light**: Peace lilies prefer **bright, indirect light**. Too much direct sun can scorch the leaves; too little light will prevent blooms.
* **Watering**: Keep the soil moist but not soggy. Peace lilies are sensitive to overwatering.
* **Humidity**: They love a humid environment. Mist the leaves or place a tray of water nearby.
* **Repotting**: Refresh the soil every 1–2 years to prevent nutrient depletion.
