I like to use egg shells in my gardens for extra calcium but did you know you can use them to start your seeds in? It’s a great trick as you plant the whole thing, shell and all . It provides calcium for your plants through-out the growing season. Especially good for tomatoes! You have to break the shell up a bit when planting but I t’s easy. The plants will out grow the shells pretty quickly so if your garden is not quite ready , you can plop them into a larger pot if necessary. Kids love this activity! Any questions? Don’t hesitate to ask. Always happy to share gardening experiences .
