In recent years, toilet paper has been becoming a famous family silver in many households in recent years and blowing one such equal wonder not a crime. The truth is that their further use has a lot of forms. We can make them simple seed pots.
Most of us are slowly processed by this information. The roll of toilet paper is simply almost a raw material worth gold that we should have at home. Children make them in kindergarten animals and flowers, suitable for paper Advent wreaths, some even embark on the production of ruffles – in short: Fantasy really does not. We could talk about hygiene of such creation, but let’s assume that everything is fine and we don’t have to worry about anything. In this case, we can also start the production of seed pots.
You will see the illustrative production procedure in youtub video from Adam Leone – Carrot Tops Allotment:

Flowerman three … two … one … now!
Like many similar ideas, this is very easy to realize and the transformation of ordinary rollers into a makeshift flower pot really can handle everyone. All we have to do is cut the roll on one side of two cuts to the cross to a depth of about two centimeters. There are four parts, which we bend inwards and we can attach one another to hold the rode “closed”. Done, flower pot is born.
Bet without worrying
What to do next? Nothing other than if we had a classic pot. Fill the newly formed container with a substrate, deposit the seed in a place where it will flourish, cover with another layer and we can put individual pots in the box, for example, to have them together. As soon as the right moment comes to transplant germinated and grown seedlings on the flower bed, you will fully appreciate your initial idea. Why? It’s simple – paper rolls can easily into the ground along with plants, so they will soon spread.
Do you have other ideas?
Just the described use of rifles will bring a lot of use, but it is not the only way to use them in the garden. You can create temporary protection of young seedlings from slugs and other pests. It will be quite enough if you just hide the seedlings in a roll and it’s done.
Insect hotel will make the garden happy
On the other hand, if you want to attract useful insects to your garden, there is nothing easier than to fill with various materials such as dry leaves, mulching bark, grass and the like. Finally, tie the rolls and place them in various corners of the garden. It will be a gardener, but also nature – and it is possible to care for any land.
Enjoy time off with kids
If you have a few rims left after all the events in the garden, you can enjoy them together with your children in the production of a “telescope”. It will be enough to tie up to each other and you can observe the bugs in their new houses. Multiple pieces can even create a puppet theater. Children will enjoy cooperation with parents, spend the most valuable time together and enjoy staying in a beautiful garden full of good work.
