If you’re looking for an easy way to water your plants without having to worry about it every single day, look no further than the wine cabinet. All you need to do is fill a wine bottle with water and quickly stick it upside down straight into a pot filled with soil. The water slowly releases over time and you won’t have to worry about forgetting to hydrate your plants ever again.

If you want an easy way to make your own seed tape, all you need is some water, toilet paper, and flour. You mix the flour and water into a paste and gently paint it onto the toilet paper. After that, you can space the seeds out onto the tape and it works just as well ass store-bought tape!
Milk Jugs?

Overnight frosts and cold snaps can kill your plants pretty quickly, but thankfully you can stop all of that with an old milk jug. Clean it out and cut off the bottom then place it over your plants overnight. The plastic helps regulate the temperature and can protect your plants in some of the coldest weather.
