DIY Liquid Calcium Fertilizer for Container Gardening using Eggshells from Quail Eggs

In this video, we will show you how to make your own liquid calcium fertilizer for container gardening using quail eggshells and vinegar. Calcium is a vital nutrient for plants and plays a crucial role in cell growth and development. However, both calcium deficiency and excess in the soil can cause problems for vegetable plants.

As a container gardener, you know the importance of making and amending your own soil to provide your plants with the right nutrients to help them thrive. Over time, even readymade potting soil can become depleted, or the original mix might need to be tailored to match your plant needs.

One of the advantages of liquid calcium soil amendment is its quick absorption and availability to plants. When added to the soil, it immediately dissolves and can be taken up by plant roots. Additionally, liquid calcium can help balance the soil pH level, which is important for optimal plant growth and nutrient uptake. It can also improve soil structure and water retention, which helps plants to grow and thrive.

We will demonstrate how to dry and grind quail eggshells, mix them with vinegar to extract the calcium ions, strain the mixture, and test the calcium content. We will also discuss the proper use and application of liquid calcium as a soil amendment for container gardening.

By the end of this video, you will have learned how to make your own liquid calcium fertilizer, a costeffective and easy way to supplement your soil with the essential nutrient your plants need to grow healthy and strong. Whether you're a seasoned gardener or just starting, follow along and enhance your container gardening skills with this informative tutorial!

We also show you a calcium test proof that this method works!
