It's getting out of hand. Since I'm too lazy to do canning, I freeze my own tomato sauces in reused glass jars. Yogurt containers with lids and tiny cut slits are great for holding cuttings for raising young caterpillars - they can't swim, so the lids keep them from drowning. I'll have to check out Sue's posts. I'm so behind on blog reading. Hope you're well!Katie (Nature ID)https://www.blogger.com/profile/17730655720390625839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8210757346121712556.post-23389507671827724022012-04-24T09:00:18.887-07:002012-04-24T09:00:18.887-07:00Jeannette, oh boy, do I have stories of things I&#...Jeannette, oh boy, do I have stories of things I've found in dumpsters through the years! Our new neighbors don't know about recycling. I'm tempted to give them a copy of WM's list of recyclables.Katie (Nature ID)https://www.blogger.com/profile/17730655720390625839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8210757346121712556.post-1144768394206235452012-04-24T08:58:37.811-07:002012-04-24T08:58:37.811-07:00Wow, those really are big and bold.

I never thought of recycling used plastic containers for potting plants before - that is, not until I read a post on Sue Langley's blog over at Sierra Foothill Garden in which she was using those plastic salad/produce containers to grow seedlings in. What an awesome idea, since they already have a built in "lid" to cover the container with, which helps the planting medium retain heat and moisture. We should all think twice before we throw stuff out!camissonia (Arleen)https://www.blogger.com/profile/10156059239148602974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8210757346121712556.post-64607522510276600202012-04-16T19:15:02.429-07:002012-04-16T19:15:02.429-07:00I never would have figured you for a dumpster dive...I never would have figured you for a dumpster diver...recycling really is an art.Jeannettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06115410908800997558noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8210757346121712556.post-65060058640925100942012-04-16T12:24:31.596-07:002012-04-16T12:24:31.596-07:00Yah, that's looking a little small for lewisii...Yah, that's looking a little small for lewisii.
