Our gardeners come up with all sorts of useful tricks to make their work in the garden easier.

One of such inventions is drip irrigation using a plastic bottle.

Cut off the bottom of any plastic bottle.

Instead of a lid, insert a piece of foam rubber folded in half into the neck.

Then fill the bottle with water and bury it in the place where the seedlings will be planted.

Plant the seedlings around this device at a distance of about 5 cm.

This slow watering of the plants will provide them with a constant supply of moisture and will also reduce the likelihood of the plant forming surface roots.

To improve the effect, mulch the bed with hay or humus.
