I really thought this was fun and informative. An excellent motivator for us to include more edible plants in our garden.
Can you show how to grow squash?
great idea always been a problem getting water to all plants tks
Great tips!
could I add a rose bush or lavendar to the top?..I have a large strawberry pot with 12 pockets. Will try the gravel idea. Thanks
Clever gravel idea. Easy to.do.. I've seen other tutorials make holes in a PVC pipe.. I dont have tool skills. This is much better. Thanks.
I am so excited to try this very soon.
I dig it
I've used a PVC pipe for years…………………gonna try the gravel.
leave the paper towel roll inplace as its relatively porous and will act as a conduit for moisture to dissipate into all areas of levels in the pot………..
