RE: Recycle-DIY veritical wall garden

Nice concept. Do you ever put holes in the bottom in case of over watering?

Also, I think the openings may be a bit too large and cause quicker drying of the soil. Has this been a problem for you?

Sort:  

@steemgenerator, Depending on your situation you are 100% correct! The size of the opening will determine the amount of evaporation to a degree, However when it is hot a plant will transpire far more water through it's leaves, than what could ever evaporate from the soil. I find one or two small holes for drainage will be adequate. Remember runoff will trickle down from one recycled bottle to the next one below.
