Brilio.net - Planting longan trees in the yard provides many benefits for the surrounding environment. The lush leaves of the longan tree create a more beautiful and cool atmosphere in the house. Longan trees also function as protection from excessive exposure to sunlight.
Longan fruit has a round shape with a distinctive sweet taste. The soft texture of the longan fruit flesh is its own attraction. However, the process of caring for longan trees requires special techniques to get maximum fruit results.
Common problems in longan cultivation are the fall of fruit before it is ripe and flowers before they become fruit. The use of table salt as fertilizer has become a solution that is often used to fertilize longan trees.
A video on the IMAMRIFKI OFFICIAL YouTube channel shows that salt needs to be combined with other additives to prevent fruit loss and thicken the fruit.
As reported by BrilioFood from YouTube IMAMRIFKI OFFICIAL on Tuesday (12/11), the YouTube user used fertilizer from banana stems as an additional ingredient. He used young banana stems, so they could be easily cut from the main tree. Well, these banana stems will later be mixed with table salt.
"Because banana stems contain nitrogen fertilizer, it is good for fruit plants. Meanwhile, salt itself is good for the growth of longan fruit so that it does not miscarry," explained YouTube IMAMRIFKI OFFICIAL.

Well, the way to make this fertilizer is also quite easy. First, thinly slice the banana stem until it is finished. After that, put it in a container and mix with enough table salt. Then stir while squeezing the two ingredients until slightly crushed.

Next, move the banana stem into a bucket. Then pour 5 liters of water. Stir again. If so, immediately pour it into the lower part of the longan tree trunk.

Using fertilizer from banana stems and salt tends to be cheap, or even doesn't cost a penny at all. You can use banana stems in the garden. While the salt can use the one already in the kitchen. Very easy to get, right?

But besides being given fertilizer, don't forget to prune the flower branches. In the video, he cuts the flower branches that have fallen off. This is done to maximize growth to the flowers that are still intact, so that they can become large and sweet fruit.
"This is to maximize the longan fruit itself and its growth will be bigger and will not result in miscarriage," said YouTube user IMAMRIFKI OFFICIAL.
