- Use pine cones as a filler
Large, deep planters can take after the bag to fill to the top. Not only is this expensive, but it is mostly the roots of the plants that do not reach the bottom of the pot, so it is completely unnecessary.
While plastic bottles, rocks, and cans are some of the filling options available, pinecones are slightly better. All potatoes are lightweight and won’t add extra weight to your pot if you need to move it. The second apples are now to break down and will certainly add volume throughout the season. Finally, when pine cones fail, they have added beneficial nutrients to the soil and are not chemicals such as plastics or metals.
When you live pine cones to fill your containers, place them to occupy the levels of space at the bottom of the pot.
