CO2 Fertilization

Here's an example of a plant that my wife and I had almost completely given up on, but that has suddenly come back to life now that we've started using micro-composters on our balcony. The tiny dark leaves are the old ones. Clustered together and bug ridden, they aren't much to look at. However, a number of larger and healthier looking leaves have now sprouted from this dying plant, and the only explanation we can think of is that it must be due to our micro-composters.

Interestingly, we haven't put a micro-composter into this particular pot. The effect must therefore be from the micro-composters in its immediate vicinity, of which there are three. That shows us once again that it is the CO2 released by our micro-composters that is the main driver of this renewed vigour.

CO2 is healing our dying plants, and making all our plants greener and healthier.
