Reusing & Recycling.....

As the weather is getting a little bit colder, I know my salad outside won't last long. So I thought it's about time I sowed some indoors. But I have 1 problems with that, and her name is Willow!

My 9 year old cat has always had a think for anything green!

I had a nice range of house plants until I got her for my 21st birthday. With in a month they had all died from her eating or knocking them on floor.

So whatever I grown my salad in it has to be cat proof!

That's it! Cat proof.....

What can't be any more cat proof than Diego's old OVO Habitrail units!

Poor Diego the hamster die early this week at the age of 2, which we are all sad about. But I'm sure he'd be happy with us using his tank to grow some salad.

So, that's what I've done.

I layer of compost in the bottom, sowed the mixed salad leaf seeds and watered. I've closed the lid and put the stoppers on the tube holes - Now I have a very strange looking mini greenhouse.

I have few other units that I will do the same with over the next few weeks, spacing them out by a week.

I wonder what else I could grow in them?? mmmmm...........
