We finally planted some of our recycled pop bottle planters, excellent fun to make and plant.
Bob Hyland has the instructions here. Thanks, Bob, for the nice clear visual guide.
These little sub-irrigated planters are a perfect way to recycle 2-liter pop bottles (which we had to beg from friends who drink soda) and pot up some of the left-over seedlings we didn't get into our bucket SIPs (sub irrigated planters) on the roof.
I mixed in a little of the organic fertilizer neighbor Bruce found locally. Hence the tea-colored water at the base.
Wouldn't a couple of these kale leaves be a nice addition to the tiny BLTs they're making over at Homegrown Evolution?

You cut em straight Heidi. Nice job! I've observed that many folks can't cut a straight line.
However...er, um...you left some label adhesive on the bottle to the left. Tsk, tsk. Better get some Goof Off or Goo Gone...or peanut butter...yuk. ;-)
My straight cuts don't offset the messy adhesive? How can you even see this stuff from behind your green sunglasses?
