This project explores the creation of eco-friendly planting pots using waste materials such as eggshells, peanut husks, and egg tray paper. These discarded items were cleaned, crushed, and mixed with water to form a paste, which was molded into pots and dried. Eggshells provide calcium, peanut husks improve structure, and egg tray paper acts as a biodegradable base. The pots were tested for strength, water retention, decomposition, and plant growth. Results showed the pots held seedlings well, supported growth, and naturally decomposed in soil. This project demonstrates a sustainable way to repurpose waste into useful products that benefit the environment.
