2-Liter Bottle as a 50 Watt Light Bulb HACK
clear water / soda bottles, either using 12-16 oz or larger liter bottles
would bring sunlight from above or the sides down to lower leaves
and/or smaller just sprouting plants below ..
this would bring sunlight to a smaller still growing plant that would get larger
than the one currently blocking the sun.
allowing denser planting and sprouting under the shade of larger plants.
fill the bottles with water and place them, they could double as plant markers too.
i've just thought of this and will be trying it soon. i have been planting very
densely as it is now and some plants just are not doing as well as others.
i've not paid attention to good companion plant relationships and that could
be part of the issue but i'm pretty sure this is going to help out a lot.
hmmm, surrounding a young plant with 4-5 bottles could / might increase
bushiness of plant creating more side leaves when it is younger?
