    Careful what plastics you use for this project. It's good in theory BUT a lot of plastic breaks down when exposed to tap water. A good test is to put water in it for a few days and then see if the water smells or tastes like plastic. If it does its leaching chemicals into your plants. As they grow they will absorb those chemicals and you end up ingesting a much higher amount of microplastic and chemicals overall. that's also why you should never reuse old chemical bottles or drums. We create a lot of things that are recyclable but not _reusable_ . Food cans also have a plastic lining in them and you should NEVER heat food in the can because of it. Reduce, reuse, recycle but don't harm your health in the process! Spread the word, if we work together we can fix this.

      I'm thinking about doing a stacked tub (covered in fabric) system with holes drilled in the sides to stick cherry tomatoes and maybe peppers into and tying a few of these onto it depending on how I set it up, not sure what I'm going to plant in them but cycling some herbs was what I was thinking. Should I collect rain water in a seperate tub with maybe some blended kitchen scraps in it for extra nutrition? I live in Florida, so the rainfall is fairly constant most of the year.

      @@LemonyFresh2000 check local laws before collecting rainwater. You can get a high fine in some states and cities. Our water table is already thrown off so they fine it in more problematic areas

    • @businessraptor134

      @@MichaelDane-to2yn generally not recommended for reuse because as they age they get crinkled and that releases more plastics and chemicals. If you aren't beating them up they should be a pretty safe option. It's the physical wear that breaks it down so a planter will see less abuse then a water bottle being carried around. I'd say that and milk jugs would be your best bet!

    Another great way to recicle bottles is to make bug traps with them. Just put a 1 to 1 ratio of water and vinegar till the bottle is half full, add a bit of sugar and put the trap on some tree. I use this method to get rid of fruitflies and wasps
