Recycled Greenhouse

Recycled Greenhouse

Here’s a great DIY on how to make your own recycled greenhouse. Well it’s really a mini greenhouse but it still counts. This might be a great way to get a jump start on some of your seeds.

It’s Earth Day today so I wanted to do something that I’ve been meaning to for a while. I had hollowed out a lightbulb but never found a project for it and as I was sipping my coffee I realized that while ‘America Runs on Dunkin’ it also generates tons (literally) of garbage as we become increasing a single use society.

Another bit of insiration for this ‘out with the old’ project is that Home Depot is giving away 1million compact flouresent lightbulbs today in celebration of Earth Day. This old incandescent bulb was just burning up precious watts (60W vs an equivelent 9W CF bulb). Still I used a dead bulb for this project - no sense in breaking a working lightbulb.

Hey, can anyone give instructions on how to make that bulb hollow? Thanks!

P.S. It’s one of most beautiful things seen lately!
