Experienced gardeners do not pour out the water left in the pan after boiling eggs.
The fact is that this liquid contains many important microelements: calcium, potassium, phosphorus, nitrogen, magnesium, etc.
They appear in the water thanks to eggshells.
Thus, the liquid can be used as a specific fertilizer.
How to Use "Egg" Water
An expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh recommends watering seedlings with this liquid.
In addition, "egg" water is ideal for indoor plants.
But for garden crops it is worth using a more powerful product.
How to make a stronger remedy
To get access to a complete fertilizer, it is advisable to take not the water left after boiling eggs, but a specially prepared infusion of eggshells.
Grind the hard shell of the eggs well. You need to get 50 grams of powder. It should be poured with a liter of boiling water.
The liquid should be left “alone” for at least 7 days.
A sign that the fertilizer is “ready” is the appearance of an unpleasant odor.
The fertilizer should be diluted with clean water four times. As a result, you will have a product that can be used to water garden crops at the root. The fertilizer is ideal for tomatoes.
