Yesterday, I wanted to do something with flowers, so I started a small flowerpot project.
First, I went to the store and bought some flower pots. I picked some small, cute ones because I only wanted to plant a few flowers.
Then I chose some flowers to plant. I remembered reading online that petunias are easy to take care of and they don’t need a lot of water, so that’s what I got. Plus, they come in many pretty colors. The article also mentioned begonias and pansies, but I stuck with petunias for now.
After that, I needed some soil. I already had some at home from my last gardening project. I also found some fertilizer. The online article talked about how important soil, fertilizer, and drainage are, so I made sure I had all of that ready.
Next, I started planting. I filled the pots with soil, then carefully placed the petunias in them. I added some fertilizer and watered them just a bit. I didn’t want to give them too much water because the article said to let the soil dry a bit between waterings to prevent root rot.
I put the flower pots on my balcony where they can get plenty of sunlight. The article said petunias like five to six hours of sun each day, so my balcony is perfect.
- Bought small flower pots
- Chose petunias for their easy care
- Used existing soil and fertilizer
- Planted the petunias and watered them lightly
- Placed the pots on a sunny balcony
It was a fun and simple project. Now I have some beautiful petunias on my balcony. It’s really not that hard to make your own flower pots, you just need the right stuff and a little bit of know-how. And don’t forget to read up a bit online about what kind of flowers you want to plant!
