back to the garden containers...

     Aaaah, spring, a "no socks day" in March, in Chicago!!!

     Anywho, I hate to go back to those faux stone containers, but here's a
     slightly different recipe...


     3 parts horticultural perlite
     3 parts peat moss
     2 parts Portland cement
     enough water to make the mixture the consistency of moist cottage
     cheese

     Let cure for 24 hours - five days in a dry spot.

     If you want to age it, coat the outside surface with plain yogurt and
     a little soil. Let it stay outside for a while. Molds and lichens will
     grow on the yogurt-treated surface and age the pot.

     Let me know how it works!
