Flower friend's neighbor is a person who likes to grow flowers. Recently, he actually used abandoned plastic buckets to grow flowers and vegetables. I was stunned. I didn't know what he was doing, but he soon made me envy. Today, the editor will share some of the tricks I've learned.

1. The oil barrel is skillfully changed into a watering pot

Many plants can not water the roots, it is also a difficult thing to deal with, find a large plastic bucket, wash the bucket and drill a few holes in the bottom, do not drill more, the diameter of the hole is about 3 to 4 centimeters!

When all this is ready, you can dig a big hole next to the flower, the hole is the same height as the oil barrel, bury the oil bucket in the soil, remember to make the mouth of the bottle face up, and then bury the soil. If you want to water the flowers, pour the water from the mouth of the bottle, so that you can supply water to the flower root. Is it very convenient? I have to say, it's so handy.

But this method is very suitable for the kind of planting, you can try if you want!

2. The oil barrel becomes a "reservoir" skillfully.

The picture is from the Internet.

We still need an oil barrel here. After cleaning, we will not drill a hole at the bottom this time, but cut the washed oil barrel in half and poke 2 or 3 small holes in it. Screw the lid of the oil barrel, put the upper part on the soil, and cover the lower part.

Upper, then plant flowers on the upper part, and add water to the lower half, so that if there is no water, the upper flowers will absorb the water below, will it become a reservoir? Is it very skillful? if you think the water conductivity is not good, put on a cotton thread in the middle, it will be much better!

Wash the oil barrel and cut it in half and drill a few holes in the bottom for him, then put soil in it. If we grow too many flowers or vegetables at home, we can use some of these oil buckets.

3. Split the oil barrel to grow vegetables

Put together densely, like a small vegetable garden, it is a little rustic, but for a lot of friends who grow flowers and grow vegetables, they will not dislike it at all.

4. Watering artifacts,

Drill a few small holes in the top of a mineral water bottle and fill it with water

Screw on the lid, insert it upside down in the soil, and then bury it for him suddenly. In this way, the water on the facade of the water bottle drips full and will seep into the soil. If we are not at home for a few days, this artifact can be used to water the flowers ourselves. It works well.

5. Grow onions in oil barrels

6. Does it have a special flavor to grow succulent plants in oil barrels?

Of course, there are many ways to grow flowers in plastic bottles, but only we find that life is full of surprises.
