Time for growing plants and do some upcycling

If like me you have a limited amount of space to do some plant growing, you might like the idea of upcycling items such as pallet, bottle, pipes to grow your veggies and flowers. Take a look at some options:

Now I think it's time to seed and start growing plants!

  1. Love these ideas. We have a large backyard area, but live in a community with an HOA that doesn't allow us to keep things outside of our screened in porch. A lot of these can be modified to work well inside the small porch area while still having room to sit and enjoy the outdoors!

  2. The CPVC pipes are highly used in the industries due to its resistance against damages and corrosions. The pipes are resistant to fire as well.

  3. When I see the tips of leaves turning brown, I water it with diluted Chinese tea which is recycled from yesterday's leftover tea. This tea was collected from the tea cups served to my deities during my daily prayers. I learnt this tip of using leftover tea to water green foliage plants from a TV gardening program. Brown tips are an indication of burn out due to over fertilizing or certain undesired chemicals in the water we use.
