Dear friends, hello!
Last summer, I put together an interesting idea from flower pots that I spied on the Internet. The production turned out to be very simple and quite fast. And also, expensive materials and tools were not needed.
For making, I used:
· Plastic flower pots of different sizes;
· Paint in cans of different colors (without it);
· Thin metal pipe or fittings;
· Soldering iron (without it);
· Sledgehammer.
I used 6 flowerpots, but other quantities are possible. The soldering iron can be replaced with a nail heated over the candles. You can paint to your taste, or you can do without paint at all.
Step 1.
The first thing I did was paint the flower pots. I used mostly the cheapest paint, which costs about 100 rubles per spray can. I bought this paint on the construction market for other works, and decided to use the rest here.
Step 2.
He put the largest pot on a flat surface and hammered a metal pipe into the ground through it. My dog, as always, helps me.
He filled the pot up to the top with earth and tamped it down.
Step 3.
In the remaining pots, I melted the holes with a soldering iron to the desired diameter so that the pipe would pass freely.
Step 4.
I put the second pot on the pipe, set it at an angle, filled it with earth and tamped it down.
Step 5.
The third and subsequent pots were also put on the pipe, only they already rested not on the ground of the previous one, but on the side.
He filled all the pots with earth.
Step 6.
We planted flowers and you're done!
I will immediately answer some questions:
1. How to water? Very simple! A watering can was used for watering. Water was poured in a little bit so that it would not overflow.
2. Won't the rain wash the earth? Light to medium rain is not bad for this construction. Of course, if there is a very heavy downpour, the earth will overflow. But we rarely have such showers in Kyrgyzstan.
3. What will happen to the garden in winter? It's okay, but this is given the not harsh winters of Central Asia. If in Russia, then I find it difficult to answer.
4. Why do you need this at all? For the soul, I wanted to do and did.
I hope I answered some of the questions, if you have more, feel free to write them in the comments.
