A farmer digs a hole for planting tomatoes and places an egg and a banana inside. This might sound strange at first, but the results are truly amazing! Just a few days after planting, you can see the first signs of growth. This method is actually quite popular among farmers.
A video of this farmer’s unique technique has gone viral, receiving nearly 1.2 million views worldwide. In the video, you can see the farmer using his special method to fertilize 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. The farmer is using a natural method with just two simple items instead of harmful chemical fertilizers.
We all know that growing fruits and vegetables has become more difficult due to environmental issues like the deterioration of the ozone layer. As a result, many farmers rely heavily on 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.
One person commented on the viral video, saying, “This is such a simple yet genius idea.
I’m definitely going to try it in my garden!” Another added, “It’s amazing how nature provides everything we need. No more chemical fertilizers for me!”
So next time you plant tomatoes, consider using an egg and a banana for a natural boost. Your plants—and the planet—will thank you!
