A gardening expert has revealed her secret to transforming her thinning garden into a lush forest of healthy vegetation. Carleigh Wamberg, also known as @the_fruit_influencer666 on TikTok, shared a video showcasing her garden before and after using her homemade fertilizer, made from kitchen scraps that are often thrown away. The “soupy” mixture is created from leftover pulp of greens used in juicing and mixed with water to create a blended fertilizer that provides extra nutrients for plants. Carleigh’s garden journey started two years ago, with minimal and meager outdoor space, but her discovery of this unique fertilizer recipe turned it into a thick forest of healthy vegetation.
Carleigh explained the process of making the fertilizer, which involves saving the pulp from green juice and blending it with water to create a “soupy” consistency. She advised ensuring that the mixture is blended and watery so that it doesn’t rot, and the fertilizer works best during the rainy season. If used during dry weather, it is essential to water the greenery after sprinkling the fertilizer on. Carleigh displayed videos of her garden two years after using the juice pulp fertilizer, and the space was covered in long stems and tall plants, which her followers appreciated.
One viewer recommended getting a compost, which is super easy to create, and Carleigh agreed, stating that she had plans to start her own soon. She recommended adding water to juice pulp and sprinkling it around the garden, which made her garden grow fast and become more full. Carleigh’s fertilizer recipe is a sustainable and cost-effective way of keeping gardens healthy without having to purchase expensive fertilizers.
It is essential to note that using homemade fertilizers requires some knowledge and understanding of the plants’ needs and the soil’s pH level. Different plants require different types of nutrients, and the soil’s pH level can affect how well the plants absorb the nutrients. Therefore, it is essential to conduct research and seek advice from gardening experts before using any homemade fertilizers. Nonetheless, Carleigh’s unique fertilizer recipe is a great way to reduce food waste and create a lush garden space.
