You can make mini greenhouses I did, from soda bottle, cut off the bottom of the bottle, remove the label and add your planter and you have a green house. see picture,

Great idea you got there. I say you just can't keep a good gardener down.

What have you gotten started there? Linda B

I do the same thing in my garden when freezing weather threatens tender seedlings - using the pop bottles as "cold caps". One time my back neighbor came out while I was setting them up. She was 84 years old, and thought she'd seen everything. "What in the name of G*D's creation are you DOING?!" She knew I was a bit . . . odd, but she loved me anyway. She was that kind of woman. She died two years ago. Great lady. Her funeral was two miles long.

we used to do this in the garden all the time. but plastic bottles are getting so flimsy now that it's not working as well as it did 10 years ago.

never though about it inside. duh.
