Potting soil adds up quickly, especially for lush flower gardens or oversized pots that demand large volumes. As a seasoned gardener, I've relied on this proven trick for years to cut costs without skimping on results: bury empty plastic canisters or bottles at the pot's base.
Contents 1. Gather empty plastic canisters.
2. Securely close the lids.
3. Position them at the bottom of your flowerpot.
4. Fill the remaining space with potting soil.
You've just slashed your potting soil needs significantly while keeping roots healthy and stable. No canisters? Plastic bottles work perfectly too. Need potting soil? Check here.
