Make your own Mini- Greenhouse garden to grow plants and fight against deforestation in Fusagasuga.

 

We can combat deforestation from home with simple acts such as not using paper or reducing its use, and planting a tree.


Here we will show you how.

STEPS


1. Wash a bottle carefully so that it is clean.


2. Cut the bottle in half.


3. Take the bottom part of the bottle and half fill it with soil.


4. Plant the seedling in the soil, making sure you place it in the center of the hole.


5. Fill the hole with compost and soil: Fill the hole with 50/50 of compost and soil at a time. And on the surface only with soil.

6. Place the top half of the bottle back on to the bottom half and use the tape to seal them together, making sure there are no leaks.

7. Put a few drops of water into the bottle. Place the cap back on.

8. Leave your mini greenhouse near a window where it will get plenty of sun.

9. After a few days you will notice the bottle "sweating". If it is too moist open it up and let it dry out for a while.
