Plastic bottles can be transformed into flowerpots, hanging pots, etc., or they can be turned into great automatic sprinklers. You can spray water on the flowers and plants in your yard, or even spray water on the lawn, saving money on automatic sprinklers.

Before making a plastic bottle sprinkler, you need to prepare enough materials, a few two-liter plastic bottles, some tape, some garden hoses and screwdrivers, and some necessary tools, including sharp scissors and pliers.

To make an automatic garden sprinkler:

1. Clean the bottle

Get some two-liter plastic bottles, clean them thoroughly, pour some baking soda into them, then fill them with some water, close the lid, shake them hard and wash them with water a few times. You don't even have to dry the plastic bottles.

two。 Plastic bottle drilling

After cleaning the plastic bottle, you need to drill holes in it. You can use tools such as screwdrivers or hot iron bars to drill 12 to 14 small holes directly in the plastic bottle. These holes should be drilled more evenly so that water can be sprayed out of the plastic bottle.

3. Connect hose

The plastic bottles that have been drilled can be connected with hoses, and then they should be completely fixed with electrical tape to keep them sealed to avoid water coming out.

If you don't have a connector of the right size, you need to prepare some thermoplastic and drop it directly on the plastic bottle and hose to connect them completely tightly.

Then connect the other end of the hose to the faucet. If you want a more advanced sprinkler, you can install an automatic timer at the connection with the hose and faucet so that you can control them to spray water regularly. Finally, you can put the plastic bottle on the ground, or hang it in a higher place, so that the plastic bottle can spray water automatically.
