When buying eggs in trays, many summer residents ask for a couple more extra. When they get home, they don’t throw away this worthless thing, but carefully put it away and save it until spring.
There are six reasons for this. Once you learn about these dacha secrets, you will probably start doing the same.
1. Few people know about this, but egg trays can be used instead of mulch in garden beds. Clean and harmless material protects the soil from overheating no worse than a layer of grass or straw.
2. Cut off the bottoms of the tray holes, fill them with fertile soil and plant the radishes. When the shoots appear and the soil in the garden warms up, simply transfer the trays to the prepared bed, without the need for replanting. They say that the radish harvest is excellent.
3. In a greenhouse or vegetable garden, you can pave paths between rows using egg trays. As a result, there are fewer weeds, moisture does not evaporate as much, and your feet do not get dirty as much.
4. Cardboard trays can be used as a filler for warm beds. They are laid out as the second layer, after wood waste.
5. And finally, the most popular way of using egg trays in the national economy is sowing seeds for seedlings.
