1. Prepare the Bottle: Remove the label and clean the bottle thoroughly. Let it dry completely.
2. Create Holes: Use a sharp knife, nail, or screwdriver to poke small holes evenly spaced around the sides of the bottle. The number and size of holes determine the spray pattern and water flow.
3. Attach to Hose: Securely fasten the bottle onto the end of the garden hose. You can use tape or hose clamps to ensure it stays in place and doesn’t leak.
4. Test the Sprinkler: Turn on the water at a low pressure to check how the water sprays. Adjust the hole sizes if needed for an even spray.
5. Install in Garden: Place the sprinkler in your garden by attaching it to a stick or stake to hold it upright among your plants.
