Eggshell has been valued for years as a source of calcium, iron, zinc and many other nutrients. That’s why we like to use them to prepare homemade cosmetics. Thanks to them, the condition of our skin and hair especially improves, making them stronger, shiny and nourished. However, not everyone knows that an eggshell can also be used in a pot.
Egg shells instead of expensive drugs
In gardening stores we can buy dozens of various preparations for plants. Sometimes we spend a lot of money on them, and the effect is not always satisfactory. Our plants still look miserable, without vigor, and do not want to grow. It is worth knowing that instead of expensive chemical fertilizers, the waste we generate in our kitchens will be perfect. These include eggshells. What’s more, you don’t have to prepare fancy potions, wait several days or store them in dark places.
Pour egg shells into pots – but not all of them!
Egg shell contains a lot of valuable nutrients that not only affect the condition of our skin and hair, but also take care of our plants. These take the substances they need from the soil, but it is not a bottomless pit, the nutrients eventually run out. The flowers begin to decline and stop growing and pleasing the eye. It’s time to think about fertilization.
Just crush the egg shells and pour them into the pot. All the good that is in them will penetrate into the ground, and from there it will be taken up by the roots of our plants. We will quickly notice that they are starting to come back to life and look better and better. And all this is basically free and chemical-free.
However, care should be taken in the case of plants that tolerate acidic soil best, e.g. orchids, hydrangeas, heather. Egg shells can change its reaction to alkaline. In this case, it will be better to use .
