Besides recycling the plastic containers, you can improve your work or home environments by bringing live potted plants indoors.
Here's procedure :
Major items needed:
One empty plastic gallon container. Tree Top Apple Juice is preferred, or equal in shape. One empty plastic ½ gallon container. Langers All Pomergranate Juice is preferred or equal.
Directions:
Lay the plastic gallon container on its side so the front label is facing up. Place the empty plastic half gallon container on the label and with a sharpie pen outline the bottom on the Tree Top label and with a sharp knife carefully cut the outline. Insert the half gallon into the hole until it rest on the back label of the gallon container. Then mark and cut approximately one inch above the cut on the ½ gallon to complete your planter container. Remove and drill several ¼ inch holes on the bottom of the ½ gallon cut container for drainage.
Fill the cut ½ gallon planter with one inch of gravel before putting in good potting mix soil and live growing plant. If you make two or more you can pour the water back and forth and not waste the water with the nutrients.
Its really great idea. You can try this at your home or office and add your part to save planet.
