I have been shopping lately on a Grove Collaborative. They feature affordable eco-friendly products. You can get regular shipments based on need or just shop occasionally. Mothers Day is just around the corner! Grove encourages buying product in bulk and reusing original bottles to cut down on plastic waste. They have monthly promotions you just can’t resist!
Emptying the wine bottle is just the beginning of the fun with this simple hydroponic kit.
Once that wine is dispensed with, fill the bottle with water, plug the neck with one of the three hydroponic “smart soil” capsules, drop in some herb seeds (sweet basil, dill, and lemon basil are included), and put it in a sunny spot. Your work is now done. You don’t even water this little crop: just watch the everyday magic of germination and growth.
Within 3 days to 2 weeks, tiny seedlings will appear. Gradually, their roots will extend down the bottle, absorbing the dissolved nutrients from the capsule. Before you know it, full-sized leaves will appear. Within a few weeks, it’s harvest time. Pluck some delectable, aromatic leaves, and add them to dinner—accompanied by wine. Made in New York.
