Topic: The Green Gardener's Guide to Butts
Why Buy Butts?
Recycling shouldn't just be reserved for the kitchen waste, empty wine bottles and spent beer cans. As well as creating your own compost heaps to help nourish your garden, you should also consider using rainwater butts. Butts are usually placed underneath a downpipe so that they collect the rainwater as it runs off. This water can be used for a number of things around the garden, primarily watering your plants. Plants much prefer rainwater to tap water and will flourish given a regular supply.
