Serve Fresh: These homemade solutions are most effective when freshly prepared. For the best results, use them right after making them.

Storage: If you have leftover solutions like coconut water or banana peels, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for a few days to preserve their freshness. However, it's best to use them fresh to ensure maximum nutrient content.

Variations:

Fish Tank Water: If you have a fish tank, the water can be a wonderful natural fertilizer for your houseplants. Fish waste is rich in nutrients, so use it to water your plants instead of regular water to encourage green and healthy leaves.

Eggshells: Crushed eggshells can be added to the soil to provide your plants with calcium, which helps prevent yellowing due to poor cell structure.
