You can, but the two ends don't always grind up very well. And stringey things like banana peels and celery will tend to cause it to seize up. I would recommend using them in your garden for compost. They are supposed to be really good for tomato and rose plants. It has been not recommended, but I myself have cut 'em up and experimented with it, and it seems to work just find. I do know that egg shells and ice, either by themselves or together, sharpen the blades of a garbage disposal quite well, and it helps to do it daily depending on how much you use the garbage disposal.
No you can't grow a banana tree from the peel. Well you can if u do in logically. The banana peel needs speical chemicals then...
You grow bananas from offshoots that grow up from the banana.
Yes, you may put potato peelings into a compost pile. What you don't want to put there are dairy products, greasy or oil foods, and meat products. Those three groups are the most likely to attract foraging wildlife.
Yes, if included in your compost. Any natural produce that can be eaten by worms insects or other soil inhabitants gets broken down and can then be used as fertilizer. If you do not have a compost pile, bin or whatnot just dig the peels into your garden bed deep enough that they are not readily attractive to animals.
Yes, banana peels can be used as fertilizer. One peel may be chopped into small pieces for soaking in one quart (0.95 liter) of water to be diluted with three more quarts (2.84 liters) to make one gallon (3.78 liters) for pouring into soil or spraying onto plants. It serves as compost tea and pest repellent and, when it is dried and ground or puréed in a blender, as calcium-, magnesium-, manganese-, potassium- and sulfur-rich compost, fertilizer and mulch.
Yes. But you may want to break the pit up, because it will take a long time for it to break down, if you don't.
definitely!
It takes about 3 hours For a worm to decompose a banana peel!!
Usually 3-4 weeks
Cutting into small pieces and leaving in a bin or on a pile monitored for specific levels of air, heat, light, micro-organisms, and moisture is the way to decompose a banana peel. It generally takes a month at most.
Decomposed soil.
A banana skin take roughly 3-5 weeks to decompose depending on the circumstances. the banana skin takes so long to decompose as it contains some chemicals that go into the use of making plastics.
water
The banana decomposes more readily because it is mainly composed of sugars. While the peel is more fibrous and is designed to withstand the elements. The main purpose of a banana is to deliver seeds to the ground and the only way it can do so is to decompose fast so the seeds(which have been bred out of the banana you currently eat) can germinate.
Orange peel is tougher, so it takes longer to break down. As well, citric acid in the peel means that many insects and other decomposers will avoid it.
Potatoes
The skin of a banana is called the peel.
No. The outer skin of a banana is a banana peel and you peel it off.
There will be a hole in the Banana peel...
