New life for plastic bags, and earth pots
Reader Jean-Yves Clavreul has dropped us (by email) a note and photo about simple methods of retaining water and earth around young plants, to encourage their growth. Put a used plastic bag (the ones that blow around everywhere) around a plant before putting in into the soil, and top it off with a small layer of earth. One variation is to use broken bits of plant pots around the plant, keeping the curved bit facing upwards, and covering with soil. Watering the plant once a week around its stalk will be enough to see it grow strong.
