Q.Hello, Can Amla Paste( A Residue After Making Fresh Amla Juice) Can Be Added To Plants ?

Zone 400034 | Sweni Jain added on November 13, 2022 | Answered

The amala paste is residue after straining the juice. It is a mixture of amala and herbs like curry leaves, coriander leaves, mint leaves and ginger. It has no added sugar or salt or any other ingredient except mentioned above. I would like to use the residual paste as fertilizer/manure for the plants. If yes And how often the paste can be used ?

Sure! Using a paste like that can be just fine. As far as how often to use it...

That may require testing soil for deficiencies beforehand. This can be done, easily, though.

You will want to test for pH swings, and nutrient overloads. Both will signal to stop feeding.
