Abara Ka Dabara Mr. Plastic (Part-3)

 Hello everyone!! Welcome back to my blog. First of all apologies. I was not able to update the blog because of my exams. And the most important thing that happened in these 2 weeks was that I developed an interest in growing plants. 

With this, we start with today's topic and that is "repurpose".

REPURPOSE

In simple terms repurpose is when any particular object is used again but the purpose is changed. Usually, people get confused in between reuse and repurpose

Reuse means when something is used again for the same purpose while repurposing means that you are using something again but changing the purpose of its use.

For example- I used a plastic cup to grow coriander.

The gardener said that the cup is too delicate so it may not last for long but seriously guys, I wanted to try. So what I did was -

-Adding garden soil

-Sowing the coriander seeds

-Watering them 

But that is not it. Some advice

#Make sure you cover the seeds with soil completed

#Do not sow the seed very deep in.

#Turn the soil before sowing the seeds

#Water it every day and bingo you will see amazing results.

I even painted the cup

Next, I tried to grow tomatoes in a Limca bottle. I cut the upper portion of the bottle. In the lower portion, I added garden soil and then I placed a thinly sliced tomato in the soil and then covered it completely. After 2 weeks a very small stem grew.

These were some fun things I tried. I think you will also be encouraged to repurpose the plastic.

And one more thing

This is how I repurposed a medicine bottle

Well, all this went well, it was very easy and I am super happy with the results. Try it and then share your photos!! 

Thank you,
