Don't Rush to Scrap Your Old Bathtub: Here's How It Can Be Used in the Garden
An old cast iron bathtub can still be useful around the house.
Practical gardeners turn it into a reservoir for collecting water. The liquid heats up during the day in the sun, so it is ideal for watering cucumbers, tomatoes, peppers.
But the options are not limited to these. An old cast iron bathtub can find a "second life" in the garden. There are at least 3 more options, in addition to sending the product to the scrap metal.
For example, a bathtub can be beautifully decorated and turned into a kind of flowerpot. Or you can simply grow vegetables in it.
The container can be buried in the ground, filled with water and used as an artificial pond. If you have ducks, they will appreciate it.
If you develop the theme of a decorative pond, then the “banks” can be laid out with stone or brick, and flowers or small decorative shrubs can be planted nearby.
There are more complex options, but they are no less interesting. For example, an old bathtub can be turned into a place for gatherings. Another option is to cut the metal in half and make a stove. But in this case, you need a skilled welder.
