Re: New projects for Melody (OUT-House sprouters) lol

[Guest guest]

what's with the " New projects for Melodie? "    And did you see the shoe pocket

planter?   I think I am going to do that and attach it to my shed if there is

enough sun there.  I may put spearmint (if I can find some seeds) and

peppermint and other herbs or little lettuces.  I am going to mix peat and

potting soil I think.  I thoughtthat was a good idea.  I will check aroun and

see what I can find.  If fabric, I can see it could rot over a year.  With

plastic, it could get hot and  I'd probably have to put drainage holes in

there.  I was wondering if had anything like that.  That might work for

an apartment, Melody.  It could  hang with 2 back to back oer a railing   or

on the wall of a balcony.  Needs a tray or trough at the bottom but could plant

in that too and it would get water from above. 

 

I was impressed with it.  I also thought the idea of using the flushes to water

sprouts or plants was an intersting idea but the water going into the toilet

and  just thinking about it in the bathroom wassort of a turn off but plants in

bathroom would make the air quality better.  Don't think I'd want them edibe

though.

Well I just fell off of my chair (after seeing the Toilet Gardener). OMG, I

could NEVER have any kind of sprouts in my bathroom. The thought alone, (and I

don't care how clean the water in the tank is), to me, well it's GROSS.

But I had to laugh when I saw " New projects for Melody " .

ROFL.

Carolyn, did you not see my post about using the shoe container? I am not where

I can search for the message, but I will find it if you missed it-I advise

against using a shoe pocket organizer...tried it with bad results on several

levels-leaching chemicals, falls apart, and your herbs end up tasting and

smelling like plastic (if fabric, very likely treated with flame retardants)

Oh no, I thought it was such a great idea.  I can see plastic could be a

problem.  Didn't think about the shoe bags being flame retardant.  I thought

that was only children's bed clothing. 

 

I wondered about te weight of it but thought it could be mixed with peat. 

Darn, it looked like such a good idea.

I couldn't do the shoe pocket thing anywhere in my home. I can't have water

dripping on anything. If I had a balcony or a porch, I'd have tomato buckets all

over the place (maybe one of those topsy turvey things). But for now, it's my

shelves and that's it.
