Do Lawn Edging in a Simpler Way
Creating clean, defined borders between your garden beds is essential for a tidy lawn. One simple technique involves laying a 2 by 6 board along the edge and holding it in place with your foot. Then, use a spade to cut along the edge of the board in a steady motion. Continue adjusting the board as needed to achieve a straight, neat line.
The Micro Greenhouse
If you’re having trouble starting seeds or cuttings, consider trying the micro greenhouse method. You can repurpose 2-liter soda bottles to create small greenhouses. Simply cut off the bottom of the bottle and remove any labels. Place each seed or cutting in its own bottle, which will act as a mini greenhouse. Once the seeds sprout and the cuttings are rooted, you can remove them and plant them as needed.
