Weird Ways To Use 21 Household Items In Your Garden

Gardening can sometimes be an expensive hobby, however, there are lots of both money and time saving tricks that you can take advantage of. Actually, everyday household items, or trashcans can help you nurture your flowers and shrubs without having to spend a penny.

Take a look at these 21 household items that have a great number of uses in your garden:

1. Milk Cartons

Rinse your empty milk cartons with water and they’re ready. You can use them as upside down planters, as shield for delicate emerging shoots, as a seed starter or as a bird feeder.

If you need to dust diatomaceous earth around the garden in order to get rid of pests, poke a few holes in the cap of a dry milk carton and shake it to spread the powder. This trick works as a DIY watering can as well.

Then, turn the empty milk carton into a multi-purpose scoop for digging in soil or the compost heap.

2. Newspapers or Cardboard

In order to make an organic weed killer or natural mulch, use paper. Just lay newspapers around the base of your plants in order to smother weeds and encourage earthworm activity.

If you don’t have the time to dig up an area of grass, yet you want to have a new plant bed, simply use sheets of cardboard to smother the grass.

You can add newspapers to compost in order to remove unpleasant smells or fashioned into sustainable planting cups for starting seeds.

And, don’t worry about the possible toxins from the newspaper ink, since today most publishers use organic pigments such as soy.
