Everyone says pasta water, rice water, and eggshells are “free plant boosters.” But almost nobody tests them properly.
So I did.
Same herbs. Same soil. Same light. Same watering schedule. No shortcuts, no hype, no guesses. Just side-by-side results over time to see what actually strengthens plants and what quietly damages soil.
In this video, I break down what really happens when you use pasta water, rice wash water, and eggshells in an herb garden. Not theory. Not trends. Real results you can apply immediately. You’ll learn which one improves soil biology, which one causes hidden problems most gardeners miss, and why the winner isn’t the one social media keeps pushing.
This isn’t about chasing fast growth or flashy tricks. It’s about building resilient herbs, healthier soil, and better flavor using what actually works long term. If you care about gentle gardening that respects plant biology instead of fighting it, this test will change how you reuse kitchen scraps forever.
