Do you want to increase and improve the quality of the Harvest in the country? Harvest and Apply Eggshells Now
In shops for gardeners and gardeners, eyes run up - how many different means that promise a rich harvest! True, the price for some is unjustifiably overstated, and the chemical composition of others raises serious doubts - is it then safe?
Therefore, I decided to turn to folk recipes! They often do not require large expenditures and are guaranteed harmless to humans and the environment.
Let's take the most ordinary eggshell. About 90% of its composition is calcium carbonate, but it also contains 27 compounds, including silicon, fluorine, iron, molybdenum, zinc.
With its help, I was able to increase the yield of several vegetable crops (tomatoes, green beans, bell peppers, cucumbers and radishes). Eggshells are effective when applied to any type of soil.
In addition, assimilation of eggshells helps plants to accelerate growth and improve their ability to adapt to adverse weather conditions.
I've tried a lot of products with her. Some kind of infusions, complex mixtures. But in fact, everything can be done simply, namely, to bring in the shell during the autumn digging of the garden.
And it's important to note - the coarser the skins are crushed, the longer their decay process will take, which means that for autumn you need to do this, and when applied in spring, you can crumble smaller.
But in any case - the average dosage in the form of 1-2 handfuls for each square meter of planting, will be enough for plants.
Eggs are brown and white, dietary and table eggs - from which ones you will collect the shell, it does not matter at all. The main thing is that it is raw.
And since its accumulation is not a quick process, it is imperative to wash the shells from the sticky residues of yolk and protein. I once neglected this rule and had mold in my entire stock of eggshells!
In addition, the washed shells must be shaken off the water and then dried a little in the oven. You can keep them in a box, box or bag until use in the garden.
Summing up, I also want to add that the eggshell, if ground into powder, can save potatoes from the Colorado potato beetle - you just need to powder the bushes with it.
And if you crumble the shell with a "border" around a whole garden bed, then such a thorny obstacle will not be able to overcome harmful snails and slugs!
