Still tossing eggshells away? Put them in a bottle and in 3 days they become fertilizer for your flowers

The main component of eggshells is calcium carbonate, which can regulate the pH of the soil. It is also a slow-release phosphorus fertilizer; generally, during watering after planting, the effective components are released and absorbed and used by the growing flowers. After eggshell powder is used in planting flowers, the blooms are large and brightly colored, and the fruits are large and plump; it is a completely organic phosphorus fertilizer. Eggshells promote plant growth.

Eggshells from home, soaked and then applied, have a very good fertilizing effect on many green potted plants, are natural and pollution-free, and are very suitable for short-term application to potted flowers. For friends who grow jasmine (Jasminum sambac) at home, it is even better news: the eggshell contains all the nutrient elements jasmine needs to bloom. You can first wash the eggshells clean and put them outdoors to dry; after one to two days, the eggshells become dry and brittle, then crush them.

Many flower growers put eggshells directly into the flower pot, and the result is either that they stink or that maggots appear. This method is wrong, because there is egg white in the eggshell that has not been cleaned off, so it rots very easily. The correct steps are: put the small pieces into a drink bottle or bowl, crush the eggshells with chopsticks or a small stick, push aside the surface layer of soil in the flower pot, bury the crushed eggshells in it, then cover them with soil and let them be absorbed slowly.

The main component of eggshells is calcium carbonate, which can regulate the pH of the soil. There is another method: crush the eggshells and put them into an empty bottle. They do not need to be crushed very finely, as long as they can go in, because most bottle openings are very small, so the eggshells need to be crushed. Moreover, crushed eggshells help with fermentation.

You can mix and stir them evenly in a ratio of 1 part eggshell powder to 3 parts potting soil, and then pot the flowers for cultivation. It is also a slow-release phosphorus fertilizer; generally, during watering after planting, the effective components are released and absorbed and used by the growing flowers. After eggshell powder is used in planting flowers, the blooms are large and brightly colored, and the fruits are large and plump; it is a completely organic phosphorus fertilizer.

You can also use eggshells as containers to grow flowers. This idea is mainly shown with succulents; some flower growers use eggshells as vessels for growing succulents, giving a different visual feel. Here we mainly talk about a few key points. Note: when making the flower vessel, clean the egg white out of the eggshell thoroughly, because if it is not cleaned thoroughly it may rot, stink, or even breed maggots, especially in summer, so when using eggshells as containers, be sure to wash them clean.
