The best way to Create a Planter
A planter in your pool lends a touch. The small, home-made island enables one to use traditional crops or crops that do better in water as opposed to on land and is easy to construct.

Line the alternative or flower-pot container with coir matting or moss. Fill the container with potting soil to within 2″ of the best of the container.
Cut a length of foam, swimming or pipe-protect tubing long enough to encircle the rim of the container. Cut a slit inside in case you use a foam noodle, pressure the noodle on the container’s lip and join the ends of the noodle with heavy-weight obvious tape or duct-tape. In the event that you use pipe-protect tubing, slide its pre-formed slit within the lip of the container, if required to support the the tubing on the container and anchor the tubing across the upper edge of the container with heavy-weight obvious tape or duct-tape. Tubing or the noodle makes a collar for the container.
Cut a circle of foam sheeting the the size of the type of container or the diameter of the flower-pot. Where holes should be about the foam sheeting to to allow for crops draw. Cut the holes using a utility knife. Press the rigid foam piece to the pot’s or other container’s planting medium.
In case your planter could be disturbed by action in the pool wrap the pot or alternative container with deer or chicken netting. The netting will help to to keep crops and soil in place before the crops are well-established. Secure the netting. Poke holes in the netting together with the utility knife that plants can be inserted by you to the holes in the foam.
