Want to boost your fruit yield? 🍋🍅 Try hand-pollination!
Use a small artist's brush to gently transfer pollen between flowers. The best time is the middle of the day when the pollen is ripe and easily movable. This can lead to a much bigger harvest!

31 Ways To Use left Over #LemonPeel

By LivingGreenAndFrugally
June 4, 2025

"Every time you squeeze a lemon and toss the peel, you’re throwing away a zesty goldmine! 🍋✨ Lemon peels aren’t just scraps — they’re packed with natural oils, antibacterial properties, nutrients, and a fresh scent that can revolutionize your home and garden routines.

Next time you slice a lemon, remember: the juice is just half the story. The peel holds the real power! Whether you’re freshening your laundry, banishing bugs, or enriching your soil, these 31 amazing uses prove that lemon peels deserve a second life.

Q&A

❓ Are lemon peels safe to use in #compost?
Yes — just use in moderation and chop them small to help them break down faster. Avoid if your compost is already too acidic.

❓ Can lemon peels damage plants?
Only if used in large amounts or if your soil is already highly acidic. Test your soil before regular use.

❓ Can I use lemon peels if they’re from non-organic lemons?
Yes, but it’s best to wash them thoroughly first or opt for organic when using in the garden or for food-related applications.

❓ How long do lemon peels last?
Fresh peels last about a week in the fridge. You can also dry them for long-term use in #DIYCleaners and garden hacks."

Grow cucumbers up, not out! Vertical growing saves space, boosts air flow, reduces rot, and helps fruit grow straighter. Use a trellis, netting, or cage. Bonus: easier harvesting and more sunlight = more cucumbers! Perfect for small gardens or raised beds. #GardenHacks #CucumberTips

All the Gardening Tasks You Should Do in September [in the Northern Hemisphere]

Be deliberate about harvesting and cleaning at the same time—it'll prevent viruses and fungi next year.

by Amanda Blum
September 3, 2024

Gleaning

"I'm choosing this word deliberately over 'harvesting' this year. After a summer where everyone I know has been plagued with fungi and viruses in the garden, it's a reminder that harvesting the spoils of your garden is about our own benefit, but it also removes a vector of disease from our beds. After many years of "chop and drop" (where you chop down spent plants at ground level and leave them to compost in place) evangelism, it's become a common topic of conversation amongst gardening groups to ensure you remove yard waste from your garden beds to prevent the spread of soil-borne diseases. So this year, I'm making an effort to get into my beds and chop the plants and remove them. Diseased plants go in the trash (not #compost, even city compost) and healthy plants go into my #CompostPile. Even though they'll end up in roughly the same place after composting (back in the beds), the heat from compost pile will kill many of the viruses that could be present.

Seed collection

"Instead of leaving fruit to rot in the beds, it's advised to be more deliberate about which plants you should propagate for next year. The solution is seed collection, an endeavor I've become a lot more serious about in recent years. While the cost of seeds is a great justification of this, finances aren't my primary motivation. By choosing the plants that have done the best in my yard, and doing so year after year, I am actually creating my own strain of that fruit that is bred to do well in my yard. After all, it's already thrived in those conditions."

I didn’t grow these lettuces. They were purchased at the local grocery store as “living lettuces” with their root balls still attached.

They each spent a week in my refrigerator and were eaten pretty heavily…. I put them in soil and now look at them!

I can’t tell if this is a testament to how much I love strawberries, or how much I hate chipmunks. #gardening #BackyardGarden #VeggieGarden #GardenHacks #Strawberries
