7 things to do with an old garden hose

by Narjeet Kumar Complete Business solution

Next time you have an old garden hose you're going to throw out, don't! There are many things you can do with an old garden hose - even cracked or badly cracked or leaky hoses. Here are some terrific ideas for reusing the old garden hose and recycling it into fun projects.

1. Build a soccer hose for your plants or garden. Drill a few more holes in that lynches hose and connect it to a regular hose with a pair of brass or plastic. You will need to close one end of the soccer hose with a plastic cap. Now place the hose near your plants or garden or you can bury it in a shallow ditch. Allow the water to flow only as a trickle and leave for 30 to 45 minutes.

2. You can also use an old hose as a bucket handle. Cut a small piece of hose with a slit at one end. You will be surprised by the weight of the bucket that you can handle with the hose.

3. First of all, you must think about the size of your garden, long pipes are great for large gardens and small gardens will require shorter models; But as a simple rule, always choose a hose that you think is 20% more than you need. It will be fine then!

4. If you have found a small garden where space is limited, consider a wall-mounted garden hose; this is a great way to save space and look very clean against the wall.

5. If you are particularly lazy like me, or just like to play with gadgets, then an automatic garden hose reel is a great choice. These are great tools that actually reel in the hose when you are finished with it, such as the automatic cable reel winder found on a good quality Hoover.

6. For those who love camping, try adding some cool colors to your next campfire. Take one half inch copper piping and cut it into small squares. Insert a rubber hose into the copper piping and cut it. Keep it in the fire and want beautiful colors. The children like it very much.

7. Tree Support. Do you have an old tree that is bending? trying to use an old garden hose as support. Slide the old port cable through the hose and then rotate the hose to the tree. This will prevent the rope or cable from burning on the tree.
