A Seed Starter From An Eggshell
Instead of buying those biodegradable seedling pots from the hardware store, make your own by starting the seeds in an egg shell. Granny Miller has a how-to on starting seedling indoors, including a guide on turning an egg shell into a pot for seedlings.
To make the pot, she cracked the egg high so there was plenty of space to plant, poked a nail through the bottom to let water out, and added dirt and seeds. Then she stored the eggs in a clear plastic eggshell holder.
When it’s time to plant, all you have to do is pop the eggshell in the ground. It will break down on its own. The eggshells will also enrich the soil in the process.
