Green Thumbs-up: Mind-Blowing Gardening Hacks Every Plant Parent Needs to Know!

Orange You Glad You Planted

Starting seeds in citrus rinds is like serving your seedlings their first meal in a biodegradable bowl. After enjoying an orange or a grapefruit, keep the halves intact. Fill them with soil, nestle in the seeds, and let nature do the rest. The rind provides a snug, nutrient-rich home where seeds can sprout with zest.

These natural pots not only cradle the tender seeds with just the right amount of snugness but also dish out nutrients as they decompose. When it’s time to plant, they can go straight into the ground, peel and all, minimizing root disturbance in a truly ‘peel and plant’ fashion.
