As the seedling season approaches, gardeners seek convenient options for cultivating their plants. While there are many containers available, a cheap and eco-friendly choice is preferred by many.
Using Eggshells as Seedling Containers
Eggshells make for an excellent planting medium. You won’t need to purchase anything, as the shells are a byproduct of using eggs. Here’s how to prepare them:
- When using eggs, carefully crack them to ensure most of the shell remains intact.
- Collect the shells and store them in egg trays until you’re ready to use them.
Planting Directly in the Ground
One of the best features of using eggshells is that you can plant the seedlings directly in the shell when you move them to the open ground. This method not only supports healthy growth but also enriches the soil as the shells decompose.
By utilizing eggshells, you can create a sustainable and effective solution for growing your seedlings!
