Crops suitable for application of egg shell powder as organic fertilizer: Flowering plants, tomatoes, cauliflower, peppers, potatoes, carrots, beetroot, onions, cabbage, eggplant, watermelon, lettuce Crops unsuitable for application of egg shell powder as organic fertilizer: Beans, Cucumbers, Spinach (Slight application is not a problem.) Tomatoes, Peppers and Eggplants Blossom end rot is a serious problem when growing tomatoes, peppers and eggplants and can decimate entire crops. This is often caused by lack of calcium. This condition results in dark rotted sores on vegetables. A layer of crushed eggshells, placed in the planting hole for these vegetables, is a simple means of combating the disease. As they decompose, the eggshells naturally enrich the soil, providing a slow, steady source of calcium, preventing blossom end rot from occurring. Slug and Snail Prone Plants For plants prone to damage by slugs and snails, such as tomatoes and marigolds, eggshells are a good line of defense. A layer of roughly crushed eggshells encircling plants is a deadly barrier to these hungry pests, as their soft bodies are eviscerated by the jagged edges. Best of all, using eggshells to deal with slugs and snails is a natural alternative to chemical products. Thirsty Plants and Plants Not Yet Grown Calcium, which is found in eggshells, is vital to all forms of plant life and is a "crucial regulator of growth and development," according to the American Society of Plant Biologists. For an extra boost of this nutrient, place a powder made from finely crushed eggshells into a watering can and fill it up. After letting it sit and absorb for several days, use the substance to water plants, such as vegetables and shrubs, and it will act as a natural fertilizer. Potted Plants Crushed eggshells can be used to block holes in plant pots while providing soil with nutrients as they decompose. This trick works for all kinds of potted plants, like spider plants, ferns and ivy, and is as simple as placing a layer of crushed shells at the bottom of a planting container. Before using the shells, they should be washed clean of residue and broken into pieces large enough to thoroughly cover the holes. My Products...
