How to use Banana peels in plants as Homemade Liquid Fertilizer

Banana peels are as useful as the banana. They contain antifungal, antibiotic and enzymatic properties that can be put to good use. They contain nutrients that are essential for healthy potted plants. However, they don't contain everything your plant needs. As they decompose, banana peels add potassium as well as small amounts of nitrogen, phosphorus and magnesium to the soil in a similar fashion as a slow-release homemade fertilizer. Organic matter like banana peels returned to the soil helps activate microbes which in turn release the minerals into the soil so the plants.

    Good and easy method to nourish the plants. What should be the frequency of spraying?
    Can you suggest any Green insecticide spray for the Hibiscuss plants which are very prone to the white beetles that suck up the plant to death? I do not wish to use chemical insecticides.
    Would be grateful. Thanks.
