- Being someone frustrated with the plastic epidemic we have on our hands i decided to do something about it!
In episode 3 i explain why i decided to upcycle 1000 plastic bottles and create a greenhouse!
I explain how to do it, what material you need and also the difference between plastic and original glass greenhouses.

probably a good idea to have the bottle neck down instead of up. that way any rain that does manage to go inside the bottles itself can easily be contained within the bottle and pour itself into the next bottle and so forth till it reaches the ground.
Amazingly beautiful 😍 🤩 Thanks for sharing 👍 Very much appreciated 👍
Thank you on behalf of all those species that dont have a voice. Love what you do brother!
wow what a comment, melted me a little. thanks for your kind words. I'll keep fighting for them
I Love it When Someone has the Same Kinda Brainstorms I do
✨🤗✨💖💖💖✨🤗✨
Look good , i love design
Awesome! Thank you! I’ve collected the bottles but didn’t know how I was going to create the walls. Thank you.-
I had to watch this video again, I love this idea. Brilliant plan! 🙋🏻♀️😃👍🏻🌟🌷🌟🌸
Excellent video man - very impressive! Keep it up and keep us tuned in!!
Thank you! i will keep it coming!
Awesome idea! I have to try this out. Thank you for sharing this great idea. Something I might be able to do on my own. 🙋🏻♀️😃👍🏻☀️🌟
You know with the amount of bottles that go to landfills, the unhoused/homeless could have a structure made from recycled materials. I’ve also seen someone make a boat out of plastic water bottles. There is so much that could be done with recycled materials.
Thank you.
Good work! 1:37 I want some Coconut Coffee right now! Then I'll feel like building a greenhouse made out of whatever I can find laying around!!
That’s really awesome! Great way to recycle!
Thank you😊😊☺
November 2019: The State of California has A CRV (Calif. Redemption Value) program.
I describe it like those luggage cart corrals at the airport; one pays, like say, a quarter and the corral vends the cart. When the corral get the cart back, you get your coin back. This program works similarly. When you buy your drink, the CRV shows on your receipt next to the tax. When you return the cans and bottles, you get the CRV back.
Unfortunately, as of September 2019, quite a few of those recycle "take back" stations have closed down. (I don't know why, maybe lack of funding.)
With that info in mind, I am relieved that you have a good idea. I think I've seen this video before because the space between the bottles jumped out at me last time too.
Great, I think I may try this as a home ed project and to reduce plastic 👍
i love this idea!
Underrated video
Which stick do you inside the plastics, i love it , well done
Like your reuse. What's the plan when those photodegrade? Positive way to upcycle.
I’ve subscribed just because he’s fit 😌

Hey Jack, thank you for the new video. I enjoyed it pretty much....just one thing...the wind in the plastic bottles irritateted me a bit when i tried to listen to you....maybe next tie you can choose another location? Looking forward to your next video and cross my fingers for you, that your dream of a farm will come true...
Nina Ryschawy hey! Thanks so much! I agree! When I watched back I didn’t realise how annoying those bottles were, I’ll fix that for next time, thanks for being honest! Appreciated
Jacks Patch Thanks a lot Jack. Looking forward to your next video...dont let us wait for too long...😊
Nina Ryschawy I won’t Nina! Especially as it comes into season! Got lots planned
Hi. I saw a random comment about a plastic bottle greenhouse ~ typed it in... Do you know how many came up?!! *_so glad I clicked on yours_* no need to look further. You have lots about you, I like the way you think, and like your accent. Subbed and looking forward to catching up on some of your work. *One question* I noticed you threw a whole cabbage in for the worms... do they really get through that?!
Earth Dog dude you’ve made my day! I’m gonna bring a lot of content in 2019. The ratio to your last question is a handful of worms can eat a handful of food in a day! Madness
That's a tiny greenhouse but it looks like it is large enough to seed starting and seedlings if you have some way to heat it. You need to figure some way to close those gaps at the top and wherever else you have any.
L. J. Bush appreciate your feed back. I worked with the space I had at the time. The holes allowing airflow and kept it from going over in a storm. It was more of a showcase to show how to upcycle but it grew me lovely chilli’s and peppers in the summer. Not one for sowing seeds in spring as it’s not warm enough.
Could you not put a screw through the lid of the bottle to attach it to the wood Barton then screw the bottle into the lid just as you would put a lid on a bottle and canes are so expensive so I’m going to look at an alternative way to stack the bottles.
Do as you please but the way you suggest has far too many gaps an will defeat the objects. By cutting the bottles you allow oxygen and make a geo thermic wall which insulates the greenhouse via the sun and trapped air warming up in the bottles
Magic luv it fella 1 question how many canes you buy to complete the job
so what about those areas between the bottless that have some space the cold or snow still comes thru?
why does everyone leave these gaps at the top? I'd cut the top 1/3 of the bottle, flip it, and put the flatter part of the bottom as the top to each stack tower.
I enjoyed the video thanks for making it.
G M I’d agree with you, pre-build. But if I didn’t have them, the wind wouldn’t cut through it like it does. By having the gaps, it let’s storm wind pass through it, in which has stopped it from getting flattened
There are still the gaps between the bottles to accommodate storms. I was thinking I could also dig into the ground with the post stakes and rocks before backfilling to give better rigidity to the building. What do you think?
Also if the storms are hitting that hard, won't the plants be adversely affected by the cold wind?
G M I’d look at the 4 posts in each corner having post spikes for etc ridgity. Do what you thinks best bro. We all do it our own way. Always a learning process!
I don’t grow much in the cold. But it does a great job of keeping the chill out. The bits that get through are minor
see now i want to make a little cat house for outside lol wonder how many bottles i will need
Hello!
We want to make a video about plastic. It will be a video for social network platforms and our website.
And we would like to use some of your videos from UA-cam channel. Can we out your credits there?
BBC News - Русская служба yeah absolutely! Any awareness is great to stop this plastic society! Thanks so much for finding my video!
My email is jack24hodgson@gmail.com

My instagram is @jacks_patch if you want to see more.
Thanks again for the outreach look forward to it
Awesome
Is it possible to grow plants in that greenhouse during the winter?
Hi Jack does it matter about the gaps ? will this not let in cold ?
Do you still use this and what is the frame you have
New subs. Just checking if you’re still on.
The sun will shine on it and course a fire... So be careful
What's the music in this video?
PandaEatsPlanetEarth bummer I didn’t give it credit, I’ll find out later, it’s on my computer
Cabu - Good Evening
PandaEatsPlanetEarth cabu - good evening
Nice one. Thanks.
PandaEatsPlanetEarth your welcome! Solid track
Do you drink bottled water?
Are those bamboo sticks?
Sophie Staples yes! I got 8 foot one and cut them down. There slightly thicker than the 6foot ones
4 minutes on, still no instruction. Attention spans have grown shorter in recent years.
Hey Eduardo.
Man this video is so old and not well done. It’s 6 years later and I’m redesigning it so I’ll repost and it will be better, shorter and to the point
interesting points ,if anyone else wants to uncover diy greenhouse building try Lomonting Easy Greenhouse Mentor (do a search on google ) ? Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my brother in law got great success with it.
