Cheap DIY Expandable Rainwater Collection System

Updated: Jan-15-2021, 10:58 AM

i’m convinced that plants do better with rainwater than hose water!   So i built this system from a mixture of upcycled and retail parts.    Current capacity is 165 gallons with plans to double both capacity and water pressure by adding a second layer (vertically).  Come for a visit sometime and i’ll show you the details and we can discuss it.

i’ll show you how to grow your own organic garlic and give you some garlic to get you started. All you have to do is visit my house in north Wheaton. Inquire within.

Here is the garlic bed with some established garlic clumps, and some that have been spread out to grow for the season:
