# There are these little yellow balls in the soil of a couple plants…

_Geplaatst door Ezgi op 2024-05-18_

There are these little yellow balls in the soil of a couple plants that I have. They just appeared out of nowhere, so I’m worried that it is something that is gonna hurt them. Does anyone know what these are?

Hopefully they’re just from the fertilizer! Yes I will 💖

tysm! what fertilizer do you use? i’ve only ever used banana peel in water for a few days! it could be from the trees? the balls haven’t hurt my plants

It looks like fertilizer. Did you use some sort of soil like miracle grow? The soil may have come with fertilizer mixed in

#### Ezgi antwoordde op 2024-05-19

Yeah i’m using ‘plant food’ from miracle gro and i’m using fertizer sticks. Is it because of those you think?

#### red antwoordde op 2024-05-19

i’m interested too, i use a mix of miracle grow and cream top soil

#### red antwoordde op 2024-05-19

i swear the balls just come out of no where one day

It’s just fertilizer from the soil you’re using.
