This is a badge bit (BB) that is part of the PEM curriculum.  Completing this BB is part of getting the sand badge in Waste Streams.

Seed starting often involves a lot of plastic.  Let's try to make some seedling pots from glass bottles!  You'll basically be making vessels from bottles and then drilling a drain hole in them.

 

Here's tips on drilling holes in glass:


Minimum requirements:
  - Make 6 pots for seedlings or plants
  - Drilled drainage holes
  - You may turn your drinking vessels into pots for this BB

Provide proof of the following as pictures or video (<2 min):
  - Bottles you're starting with
  - Drilling a hole
  - Finished pots
