Bottle Me Planting Window Cut Karein
Bottle ko horizontally rakhein aur craft blade se 3x4 inch ka rectangular cut banayein jahan se mitti aur paudhe lagaye jayenge. Bottle ke bottom me garam keel ya soldering iron se 4 chhote drainage holes banayein.
Vertical Daisy-Chain Interlock Karein
Pehli bottle ke cap me 6mm ka hole karein aur usme rassi pass karein. Upar wali bottle ke nozzle ko neeche wali bottle ke cut window ke saath interlock karein taaki upar ka extra paani neeche wali bottle me drip ho.

Cocopeat aur compost mix mitti ko bottles me 70% level tak bharein. Tower ko balcony grill par zip ties ya mazboot rassi se securely baandhein. Har pocket me pudina ya dhaniya ke cuttings lagayein.
