There was passing reference to this in the Will Smith movie Seven Pounds. Any truth to it? Any Doper tried this in his or her garden?
I’ve heard it recommended to plant them with roses to encourage growth, though I haven’t tried that.
What I have tried is draping thin strips of peel over branches to discourage ant access for aphid farming. Seems to kinda work, especially on my artichokes where they build dirt bridges to aviod the peels.
I compost banana peels, along with most of my other kitchen waste, and add the compost to my landscaping.
Bananas are pretty high in Potassium, making them a good fertilizer (speifically it promtes fruit growth)
