Introduction: How to Make an Ecological Young Coconut Planter
This is an ecological plant pot that have many advantages... The coconut have many nutrients that help the plant grow up... This tutorial is so easy and cheap... it takes like 10 mins... good luck!
All you need:
-Young coconut
-Knife (or anything you need to cut)
-screwdriver
Step 1: Cut the Coconut
The first thing you should do is cut a hole in the top of the young coconut
Then you make the hole bigger so you can enter the plant within
Step 2: Make Another Hole in the Bottom
Now you have to make a hole in the bottom with the screw driver (you can make more than one hole). It should measure a little over 1cm2.
this will help the water to drain and not rot the root of the plant
Step 3: Choose a Base Suport
you can use a dish or a plant pot base... It only helps the water doesn't leak
Step 4: Placing the Soil
chose the best soil and place it in the coconut
Step 5: Plant Whatever You Want
Now you can plant a seed (It need time and care) or you can buy a plant and place it in the young coconut
Step 6: Finished
This is the final result (I've plant a seed, and two weeks later.. surprise!)
