[Video] How to Use Eggshells for a Better Garden
Eggshells contain important nutrients that can help keep your garden healthy – and they are a free source of fertilizer after you eat their contents! Here’s the best way to use them in your garden.
One of the minerals that is essential for the health of your garden plants is calcium. Eggshells are very high in calcium, and can help feed your plants, and reduce problems like blossom-end rot in your tomatoes.
However, the calcium in eggshells is not readily available to your plants right away.
This quick video shows you how to prepare them and what to do to make the nutrients they contain more available to your plants, so your garden can enjoy the benefits of this cheap and simple source of fertilizer.
