Dr. Pepper Sodacan Planter
This is the present I made for a fanatically pepper addict.
Supplies
You'll need;
- Empty soda can with a brand-name that has a link with the plant.
- Can opener.
- A plant that you can buy or grow from a seed (this is a pepper plant, probably Habenero that i grew from a seed taken from a yellow pepper).
- Soil and a form of fertilizer. (I use coffee dirt and eggshells)
The Plant
Buy or grow (pepper) plants.
I took the seeds from a yellow pepper. Planted them and waited till they had four or more leaves.
As a fertilizer I use a lot of reusable products like eggshells, coffie/thee dirt, the cooked water from eggs or rice etc.
Waring: wash your hand when you take the seeds from peppers and don't rub your eyes. It will hurt!
Cut It Open
Cut off the lit from the can.
Get Your Hands Dirty
Put the soil in the can and plant your pepper.
Be gentle whit the roots and It'll grow to be a beautiful plant that produces tasty peppers.
Behold you're own Pepper plant in a can!
Do you know any other funny brands with the same name as a plant and that has (soda) cans? Please let me know ;)
