Our grandmothers were experts at finding new uses for everyday items, and one such treasure is garlic peels. Instead of throwing them away, these peels can be repurposed in a clever and economical manner, especially for protecting your plants in the garden.

Harnessing the Power of Garlic

Garlic is well-known for its distinct taste and aroma in the culinary world. But beyond flavoring dishes, it also offers valuable antifungal and antiparasitic properties. Our grandmothers understood this and used garlic peels to create a homemade infusion.

Making the Garlic Infusion

Creating a garlic infusion is simple and requires just a few steps:

1. Fill a pot with 1 liter of water.
2. Add the peels of 4 cloves of garlic to the pot.
3. Bring the mixture to a boil and let it simmer for about thirty minutes.
4. Once cooled, strain the liquid and transfer it to a spray bottle.

Protecting Your Plants

Now that you have your garlic-infused liquid, it’s time to put it to use. Spray the infused liquid onto the leaves and base of your plants to protect them from diseases. This natural remedy harnesses the power of garlic to ensure the health and well-being of your garden.

By repurposing garlic peels and utilizing this sustainable solution, you not only minimize waste but also care for your garden in an eco-friendly way. So let’s follow in our grandmothers’ footsteps and give our plants the protection they deserve!
