Blueberries and other acid loving plants will enjoy a treat of banana vinegar. Put the peels in a mason jar, and add enough water so that they’re submerged. Cover them with a cloth and a rubber-band or a loosely fitting top. Let the mixture sit for a week while the good bacteria does its job and unlocks the nutrients in the peel.
After a week remove the peels, and allow the water to sit, covered, until the mixture ferments into a vinegar. This can take anywhere from 4-6 weeks, depending on conditions such as the temperature.
If the mixture seems especially potent, dilute it with water right before using so you don’t accidentally burn your plants.
