It’s Monday again! I start the day working out then meditating. I refuse to sleep in or get lazy. In fact I want to get in my best shape ever. I also want to learn. Right now, about composting. So I started a book, Let it Rot. I also gathered all the eggs from the weekend (4 dozen) washed and dried them, ground them to a powder in a food processor. If chunkier, they are good for making barriers for slugs. And also tomatoes and roses love the calcium, so I will mix them in with the compost. For an exciting hands-on fertilizer, mix the eggshells with coffee grounds, which are rich in nitrogen. I love recycling, making a fertile soil, learning what makes plants happy!

So so beautiful and informative, KJ!
Yay plants!!
FYI…tried the slug barrier usage but didnt work for me. slugs just went elsewhere or in anyway! oh, i dont wish the slug problem on anyone. boiled water along the edges of pots though can stop new eggs apparently!
egg shells, coffe grounds and banana peels too! make an excellent fertilizer.
Ooooh! Time to make this fertilizer more a-peeling!
