    I did this in my tomato patio containers last year with a little bit of used coffee grounds, and cut up banana peels in my soil and had huge successes! You can also crush egg shells and spread them around your plants (on top of soil for containers and ground) not only to provide nutrients but for pests such as slugs and other critters--the tiny broken shells are like walking on glass for them.
