Potassium is an essential plant nutrient and is important for strong rooting, flowering, and fruit development in your vegetable garden plants. It is considered second only to nitrogen, when it comes to nutrients needed by plants, and is commonly considered as the quality nutrient.

Plants are heavy users of potassium and the lack of it can result in stunted plant growth and delay in plant development. If the leaves of your plant turn a purplish hue, the plant needs potassium. 

Too much potassium can cause magnesium deficiency which is why many DIY fertilizers use banana peels and Epsom salts in combination.

There are also a lot of personal hygiene benefits for using banana peels, so make sure to check those out on Pinterest!
