I rinse mine and then dry them in the oven for 1/2hr or so. when cool I put the shells in my magic bullet and turn them into powder. I put the powder on my orchids so I get double the flower spikes than I used to. and in the soil when I plant tomatoes bushes, so I don't get blossom end rot on the tomatoes.

That’s because when you place the eggshells in boiling water any poop and other foreign material that’s left on the surface of the eggshells gets dissolved into the boiling water. After boiling, I rinse the eggshells with tap water so that all that crap gets poured down the drain. If you were to put the eggshells directly in the oven without boiling them first, you would effectively be permanently baking all that crap into the surface of the eggshells using high heat. Which is not a good time, especially if you plan on eating those eggshells yourself. I learned this the hard way. I buy my eggs directly from a small local farmer who doesn’t clean the eggshells much before selling them, which is why boiling is so necessary for me. Although I suspect larger commercial farmers tend to bleach their eggs before selling them, so in that case there might be less dirt on them to begin with. Either way I would still boil the eggshells first. Better safe than sorry.

Yes of course, Egg shells are the best source of calcium. Easily absorbed in our blood streams unlike those cheap calcium sources which clogs our arteries. Check Dr. Berry's channel.

I’ve learned that the powder is best as it is readily available to the plant, specifically good for tomatoes to avoid blossom end rot. If you mix the shells into the soil they will take a while to actually break down and the calcium may not be “available” so to speak, until the following season.

Few days to one week perhaps??) Until ready to make the powder. Maybe washed shells could be kept in the freezer till you're ready? Good luck! Lmk what you try! 😊
