There are plenty of gardening hacks that you're likely to come across if you're in the habit of scrolling through social media. Such is the case with a hack by Instagrammer sahars_suburban_garden, in which the creator extols the virtues of burying overripe bananas in a garden bed. You see, it takes quite a few weeks for the peels to break down, during which time the microorganisms will utilize available nitrogen in the soil for the task. This means that if you bury overripe bananas near existing plants, there may be a lack of available nitrogen for the plants during decomposition, contrary to what is said in the video. On top of offering no notable benefits, burying rotting fruit in your garden could also attract a number of hungry guests.
