Great idea...DIY free self-watering seedling container!

Post  Lemonie on Thu Nov 11, 2010 8:23 pm

Ran across this in a search and thought it was too wonderful to keep to myself. What a great idea to keep from loosing those precious seedlings to forgetful/inconsistent watering. And best of all...it's free because it's made of recycled materials. I seriously think I will try this! sunny
