If you have avocado peels, you possess a treasure: 4 ways to reuse them instead of throwing them away
🥣 Step-by-Step Instructions:
Clean & Prep Peels: Scoop out the ripe avocado flesh for your favorite recipe. Gently scrape out any heavy excess green flesh from the inside of the peels, leaving just a thin coating of natural oil. 🥑
Moisturizing Skin Rub: Before planting, rub the soft, oily interior of the peels over dry hands, heels, or elbows for 1 minute to absorb natural hydration. Rinse your skin with warm water and pat dry! 🧴
Fill with Soil: Take the clean, intact avocado peel halves and use a small pin to poke one tiny drainage hole in the bottom of each. Fill each half with seed-starting potting soil. 🌱
Plant Seeds: Press 1 to 2 small herb or vegetable seeds gently into the soil of each avocado cup. Lightly cover with a dusting of soil. 🌾
Water & Place: Place the avocado seed cups in a small tray near a sunny windowsill. Lightly mist with water daily until seedlings sprout! ☀️💧
Plant in Garden: When the sprouts grow 2–3 inches tall, plant the entire avocado cup directly into garden soil or a larger pot! The shell will naturally decompose while nourishing the plant! 🌱✨
