Using the cardboard box / carton and with the polybag turning them in a useful planter with no cost. Help the environment to reuse the material that is going in recycle or trash.
Earlier, I used to make planter in the same way but now what I do is that I apply waterproof paints over cardboard boxes.. which increases its longevity multiple times 😉.. try it 👍😊👍
CAUTION>>>>if you live in a zone where u have termites DO NOT USE the carboard method or any cardboard around the garden...the humidity and the "smell" of cardboard will attract them like bees to the nectar...Sadly I tried in my garden (Texas) and ended up with a huge problem with termites and since i do not want to spray my soil with chemicals had to get ride of cardboard. I also by me not knowing...helped the population of mini centipedes to explode, and oh boy huge, and I mean huge, explosion of those critters which started to eat the roots of my vegetables... This year still battling them with soap and orange oil, they are hard to kill I am telling you just in case. I do not mind to have some of them around but when numbers are large then it is a problem to the plants...(after a rain, the walls of the house, fences, pots were covered entirely with the mini centepides...kind of horror movie LOLOL). so watch out with the use of cardboard...in some areas will work pretty good to hold moisture, but in others is a nightmare.
Definitely, you can do that. How will you cover the box if the hole is in the corner? My idea is not to use just one plastic cover and cover the entire box so it won't disintegrate with water and the sun.
I just finished with my box planter! Thank you for sharing 🙏🏽
You are a real genius, this is the smartest way I’ve ever seen

I think this is a good idea. What kind of paint you have used, will it leach anything to the soil?
@@GardeningWithNitin think about it that plastic bag is going to break down and Leach everything leeches in the sun so.....

Thank you much sir (:
Most welcome!
Love this idea thanks so much!!
brilliant ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Superb ❤
But will the chemicals in the plastic leach into your plants?
When you're hungry, everything taste good.
Will I be able to grow butternut squash in it
What is the size of box please mention
Will it work if I did it like a trash can,without flipping the bottom half?
Trash can are already made up of plastic. You don't need to use trash can plastic bags.
This poly bag, is it the same as a regular trash bag?
Yes, it is the same as a regular trash 13-gallon trash bag. You can use the bigger one if you are using the bigger cardboard box.
Wow tx
Will the soil move out of the hole?
No it won't.
👍👏👌
How does soil not pour out of the hole?
You can put a cheese cloth on on the hole and then fill it. I haven't seen the soil coming out from the hole.
All planters need holes. Soil not falling out. Put chips, etc. at the bottom.
You could probably just twist the bag a little bit and that’ll keep the dirt in.
I saw someone put chicken wire around the box I'm going to add this to mine
Good idea, it will strengthen the box.
How you close tho hole?
Why you need to close it? Hole is there for excess water to drain out.
Ok thanks for replying
Sir, idea is okay but availability of plastic covers is not possible.
Is it safe to grow vegetables in a trash bag? I think you need to use plastic which is approved for use with food.
Was going to watch this video but as soon as he said social distancing and pandemic instead of planned demic I had to click off
Thank you sir!!. Great idea. You can also put the hole near a corner of the box instead of in the center.
Definitely, you can do that. How will you cover the box if the hole is in the corner? My idea is not to use just one plastic cover and cover the entire box so it won't disintegrate with water and the sun.
Very nice
Thanks
