Why don't you winter sow instead? Put them outside in the milk jugs and leave them with the lids off. Saves all the faffing of hardening them off.

I use either a bungie type cord or just some rope or sturdy twine and after you clean them out and drain them, just string them together thru the handles and hang them either in a shed or I just hang them in my pantry room...good luck

When using it for a watering can, poke your holes through from the inside of the lid. Otherwise the water sort of gets plugged up by the raised plastic when you poke from the top side.
@CourtneyBerry4 жыл бұрын
I poke mine from outside and it doesn't do that to me. I've always use bottles/jugs with holes in lids for watering.
@dcwatashi4 жыл бұрын
@@CourtneyBerry could depend on what you are using to poke the holes with. Still better to go through from the inside. Then a little bits of plastic that you are pushing through will face the downward position when you are using jug as a watering can

I have another use for used milk jugs. When I lived in Central Texas it was hard to get new trees and shrubs to start when we were in a drought. I took a milk jug and drilled a small hole, the smallest drill bit my index had, into the bottom corner opposite the handle. I then drilled the same sized hole into the lid and filled it with water. The water dripped out slowly, and sped up a little as the sun warmed the jug. It took over an hour for the water to drain out, which is perfect if you place the jug right up against the tree trunk or plant. When there is a water restriction you can only water once or twice per week, but putting out water jugs or bags is fine. I was able to keep all of my plants alive through the summer with milk jugs, and my poor neighbors lost most of their plants and all of the young trees (it was a new neighborhood). A few saw what I was doing, asked about it and saved some of their plants. One gallon in the morning and one in the evening will keep even trees alive. More if they are large. Droughts are rough, I saw oak trees that were over 100 years old die that first year. So sad. If you are worried about how it looks, you can cover it with a burlap bag/sack. In fact it will water right through the sack if you place the jug inside it. Putting burlap around the base of a new tree or other plant is a good idea in drought prone regions. The burlap shades the top of the root ball area and holds onto moisture.
