Whatever dish you prepare with eggs, you can easily recover the shells to take care of your plants.

In fact, eggshell can be used, following some indications, as a natural fertilizer for plants.

This is precisely why you can decide to recover the peels by simply grinding them finely and then adding them to your plants’ soil. You can also use the ground husks around plant roots as mulch. This is because the peels are considered essential for the growth and development of plants and roots due to their high calcium content.

In fact, eggshells contain 93% calcium and 1% nitrogen, which are vital for healthy soil.

In addition to this, they manage to maintain a correct pH balance in the soil.
