Eggshells, often discarded as waste, can be a garden's treasure, offering a natural, cost-effective way to boost plant health and vitality. Rich in calcium, which strengthens plant cell walls, and containing other beneficial nutrients like magnesium, potassium, and phosphorus, eggshells provide a comprehensive nutritional boost to plants. They also improve soil structure by enhancing aeration and drainage. From crushing and sprinkling eggshells around plant bases for a slow nutrient release, creating nutrient-rich eggshell tea for watering, to using them as biodegradable seed starters, the versatile uses of eggshells in gardening are both practical and environmentally friendly. Proper preparation and mindful application can maximize their benefits, making eggshells a valuable addition to any gardening routine.
