Chad's Crappy Corner & His New Theme For March 2018.

Chad polled our loyal Patreon members and asked them to vote on his theme for March. They picked “Inexpensive Garden Gadgets”. Chad's first garden gadgets is the Ups A Daisy plant elevation platform. These clever devices are specially designed to help reduce the amount of potting soil required to fill large pots. Insert sets inside your planter approximately halfway to 2/3 of the way down into your container. The insert elevates your flowers and plants out of potential excess water that gathers at the base of planters. This is a great solution for preventing root rot and mold issues and allows for essential oxygen to access plant roots. There are many size options: Round or square shape in sizes 10" up to 18". Chad boughtw his at Home Depot, but they're also available on Amazon. Prices range from about $6 to $16.00.

And Chad's take: Chad (and me too) like these a lot. Not only do they reduce the amout of soil you'll need to re-pot a plant, but they'll also cut the weight since you're using less heavy soil. That's great for hanging plants, or just for moving plants around. Watch this week's show to see how easy it was for Chad to install and use his 11” Ups A Daisy platform. Chad paid about $8 for it at his local Home Depot. It's also available on Amazon.
