We like it wild: bottle gardens. As much as we love to garden, sometimes there just aren’t enough hours in the day to do it all. If there’s a way we can shorten our to-do list, we’ll take it. This week’s project, a no-fuss recycled windowsill herb garden, has knocked watering the plants off our list. Self-watering planters like these aren’t a new idea; we remember our own childhood craft books that taught us how to poke holes through Dixie cups or invert two liter plastic bottles to grow our own little bean garden. This grown-up version is much better looking and works great for small herbs and plants.

We used beer bottles for ours, but you could make a larger garden with wine bottles too. Although this project may take a little more effort than your average windowsill garden initially, the pay off is worth it for us: we get to usefully recycle bottles, we get fresh herbs we don’t have to dote on, and we get a sparkling window display.

Some general considerations for growing vegetables: Sowing Tips When sowing seeds, a good general rule of thumb is to sow to a depth of approximately twice the thickness of the seed.

Some smaller seeds require light to germinate and should not be sown too deep; otherwise they may never germinate or break through the surface of the soil. Conversely, large seeds planted too shallow may not develop properly. Keep seeds well-moistened while awaiting germination and check regularly. Smaller seeds should be watered with care so as not to disturb or displace beneath the soil. Select a light-weight, well-drained medium for sowing to ensure good seed to soil contact. Growing Tips Most vegetables will produce better results if sown and grown in a soil-medium that is well-drained, rich in organic matter (fertile), and fairly lightweight.

Most vegetables will prefer good quantities of natural, direct sunlight daily. Harvesting and Seed Saving.

Yowsas. Wanna know how we, I mean, Handy Hubby did it? Good. Because I’m going to tell you. However, there are so many steps involved that I’m breaking this DIY project up into 2 posts: 1) constructing the door 2) hanging the door. We hauled the original fence boards back from Pennsylvania where they once lived at Handy Hubby’s family farm. To hold the door together and give it more of barn feel, Handy Hubby cut 2 wider support boards to attach to the top and bottom of the door. Once all the boards were cut to size, they got a good sand job {I said sand job} from a palm sander. With the necessary boards all cut to size and painted, Handy Hubby proceeded to assemble the door.

Handy Hubby pre-drilled holes for the wood screws into the horizontal boards, making sure not to drill all the way through the vertical boards below. I’m not going to lie.
