Why do tomatoes like egg shells? Bet ya didn't know this!

What happens here

Once the eggshells are thoroughly crushed, sprinkle them directly into the plant bed around your tomato plants. After sprinkling, gently incorporate the crushed eggshells into the surrounding soil. This process ensures that the calcium from the eggshells is absorbed by the tomato plants, thereby preventing blossom end rot and promoting healthier fruit development.

Goal: Finally, the crushed eggshells are applied around the base of tomato plants and incorporated into the soil to provide the necessary calcium.
