I have another use for the wire basket. I put it inside a 5 gallon bucket, then shovel some compost into it, then shake it up and down inside the bucket to sift the compost. All the bigger pieces and sticks stay in the basket and the fine soil goes into the bucket.

yes ....living in Europe here...I do the same..with the toilet paper rolls and also the longer ones from kitchenpapertowels (you get three out of one long paper roll..) and our Eggs also come in paper-mache-carbord-moulds..that are brilliant for seedlings in their early stages........another plus is that those paper rolls do not have paint or colour on it like the bought paper-cups... PIease,, could you tell me what BATHROOM-Cups are ?...We do not have those in Europe...when brushing our teeth we simply use an earthen or glas cup/mug for our mouth-hygiene .. everyone in the family has their own (it houses the toothbrush (non-electrical ;) ) The cups get put in the dishwasher from time to time.. no need to buy paper-cups for ONE USE ONLY and then chuck them away for Mother Earth to digest it... :) anyway...I was just wandering what they are used for...Also, I often wonder how mankind came to be manipulated like that...to forget that everything you need is provided for by your surroundings..if you care to look.....and you do not have to BUY things anew all the time.....I am glad people wake up..and remember how ancient civilizations..already had knowledge needed for a harmonious co-existence of man with Nature and the Planet..(like the terracotta pots and the watering system...which Commercepeople now try to sell us ...like it was GOLD....hahahah.. ;) ...I am all for : Upcycling, for creative solutions to build things out of the stuff you already have and for sharing your ideas freely...like here on this channel...all the best to us..everywhere..and lots of fun to be creative and find solutions that do not always involve buying new stuff and throwing old stuff away... :)

If you put a ping pong ball on the end of a bamboo stick( thin), push stick into ball and seal it on with silicone. Put it in your dry ohya(?) before you put it together and make sure it sticks out of your fill tube to act as a float to let you know when you are running low on water! Make a line on the stick when it is empty and another line on the stick when you fill it with water! The ball will allow it to float up and down depending on the amount of water in your jug! Just a thought! Dollar stores have the bamboo plant sticks( won't rot in water like wood)and the ping pong balls( or you could use a small, red and white fishing bobber instead)!

I save the larger water bottles/soda bottles, with the bottoms cut off for cloches and then when not needed for a cloch I turn them upside down and partically bury bury them to add water to.

And I made an egg collecting basket out of one for a friend of mine, with a pocketed cloth liner and a handle. -As far as using cups for planters, a no cost method, use cups first then rinse and recycle into planters.

Dollar Tree in the US has plastic cloches with a vent for 1.25/each. They can be ordered online via DT also. We have also used DT clothes baskets to discourage critters. Love the wire tomato cages, will double them up for new tree protection.

I love the idea of new tree protection with the wire cages. We have a lot of deer pressure on our plants here and this could help! Thanks!

Thank you for all the good advice , I use 5 gallon water bottles which I get at recycling that have a crack or defect. I cut the whole bottom outa they make great cloches . Recycling has many good things for gardeners . I do really love or mesh waste baskets and will be looking for some of them . I have a deer problem with them eating my crocuses and tulips every spring . Now I have plastic mesh fencing over them held up like a long tent with 18 inches wood stakes every 4 feet .

The deer around here seem to like my Rose of Sharon bushes. I have to cover them with chicken wire over the winter.

Love those baskets! I bought 15 at my Dollar tree last week. No staples there so had to go to hardware store and Amazon. Still a great savings and worth it to save my plants. They also do not look tacky. Didn’t get them early enough as bunnies got to some of my tulips😩.

You have wonderful ideas! I'm going to try several of the things that you mentioned. I found another hack last year for cloches and it worked very well. Dollar General sells large plastic party bowls (clear) that work great in this way. You can drill small holes in the top as well to let the hot air escape.
