Bleach Bottle Watering System
- You can make a simple irrigation system using a clean bleach bottle or 2 L plastic pop bottle.
- Don’t use plastic vinegar bottles because they are made with biodegradable plastic and will rot in the
.
- Cut a hole about the size of an egg in the bottom of your plastic container.
- Turn it upsidedown and loosen the cap just enough to let a little
drip out.
- Adjust the lid so that a full container of
empties slowly over the course of a day.
- Push the neck of the bottle into the ground beside your plant. Don’t twist it or you’ll change the cap setting.
- Check it regularly, adjust the lid if needed and keep the bottle filled.
- You can add ¼ strength liquid fertilizer like Rx-20 to the
to help fertilize your heavy feeders like corn.
