THIS IS MY FIRST INSTRUCTABLE AND I HOPE YOU ENJOY IT.
YOU CAN MAKE A RECYCLED SELF WATERING ORGANIC PLANTER FROM ANY PLASTIC DRINK BOTTLE BUT I CHOSE TO USE A 2 LITRE BOTTLE BECAUSE YOU CAN PUT A FAIRLY DECENT SIZED PLANT IN IT WITHOUT IT TIPPING OVER.

Good first 'ible, kmd7, and I like the diagrams. Just a point though, don't use capitals as it is TOO MUCH LIKE SHOUTING!!!! Other than that, let's see more 'ibles from you, especially with actual photos of each step.
