Super-Sized Upside-Down Planter

Step 6 Plant your...uh...plant

This is the tricky part, trying to get the plant through the hole without damaging it. First of all make sure the plant is dry. Wet leaves will stick to the plastic. Next, wrap your hand around the base of the plant like your, well, you know, and slowly twist the base of the plant with the other hand and pull the plant through your wrapped hand. Now use a piece of paper (wax paper preferably but not mandatory) and wrap around the plant in the same direction you just coaxed the leaves and stick the plant through from the inside of the jug. Gently add soil to fill the rest of the jug. Do not water it just yet.
