How to make a beer can planter

[@mjpatrick303]

Yes Big T! You know I'll be making loadsa these what a fantastic idea for all my IPA empties and love of plants 😎

[@bigtedshome]

Make sure to empty plenty of cans so you can try out different can:plant combinations 😉

Cracking video that! I'll be getting the kids involved in decorating some of the more boring designed cans too!

Cheers Derrick 👍

Great idea. I guess you could use a 5L keg for larger plants or a 16 oz can for root beer!.

I'm not sure how easy it will be to get the top off of a 5L keg but think I will have to empty a keg or two to find out now 😃

Great video. If you need any cans emptying first, I'm your man. Thanks.

I'm currently working on my can emptying technique. Think I might need a bit more practice 🤔

What do you put under the can when you water it? I've made a couple but I realized that the water comes running out lol

I have mine outside on the garden table and on a fence but if you want to keep them indoors then treat them like any other plant pot and put them on a waterproof saucer like these amzn.to/3O1NmQX Hope this helps 😀

How do you keep the top from cutting you?

I've not had an issue with this. I've just been out to check the ones in the garden (I found 15 🙂) and none of them have sharp edges around the rim.
