Liquid Enzyme from Fruit Rinds

When deciding to start organic gardening, I've been looking for ways to organically fertilize my future plants. My mom kept telling me that those plants wouldn't thrive without (inorganic) fertilizers. 

From the beginning I had persisted to only count on good amount of compost and mulch as the fertilizer agents for the soil. Compost tea is also a good fertilizer, especially from those of animals manure like cow, goat or chicken dung. I had planned on making my own compost from kitchen's organic scraps, which will be a good source of compost tea too, but I wan't ready. Then, I ran across a blog article by ThePinkieRabbit with information on how to make DIY liquid enzyme, using fruit rinds. I was ecstatic with how easy it was. Coincidently, I had some dragon fruit rinds, so I gave it a go. Then, at the other occassion I made some more out of the pineapple rinds and today I just made a bottle from some papaya rinds. I can't wait to apply these yummy liquid enzyme to the soil of my plants. 

I promise, it's super duper easy! For the recipe and how to make it please refer to the website above with just one click.
