Eggshells are perfect for starting seeds. I just rinsed out the eggshell a little (you don't have to) and added some soil, moistened it, added seeds, covered with a little more soil & moistened the top of the soil. When the plant is ready for the outside garden, just transplant them straight into the soil, shell and all. This is great for beans and sunflowers because they don't like to be disturbed. I just read a tip on the internet that said don't forget to crack and peel away the bottom of the eggshell so the roots
can spread out....oops..wish I had read that "LAST WEEK". I hope the little roots can crack on through to the other side.
