Source of Calcium

Eggshells are a great source of calcium. Some people grind them up (much finer than this!!!) to feed to their dogs, or to their chickens. We’re using them to boost the calcium in the soil of our tomato plants. It takes a LOT of eggs to make an appreciable amount of egg dust. This is two eggs, coarsely crushed in the mortar and pestle. I could do it in the spice grinder, but this is easier to clean. A calcium deficiency in the soil can cause blossom end rot. #mortarandpestle #urbanhomestead #backyardgarden #urbangarden #eggshells #calcium #tomato

Garden fertilizer

Another nice day for gardening 😍😍today I sprinkled some crushed egg shells directly in the soil.. then I saw some ants dragging the egg shell pieces around.. so now I don’t know if that was a good idea. #greenhouse #garden #freshgarden #vegetables #beets #greenonions #lettuce #peas #cucumber #cilantro #potatoes #carrots #healthyliving #fresh #sustainabilityinstyle #sustainability #helptheplanet #eatwelllivewell #eatwell #green #bloominggarden #plantwhatyoueatandeatwhatyougrow #plantwhatyoueat #healthyplanet #estufa #gardeningtips #eggshells #worminthegarden #nature #backyard
