Instructions
- Prepare Your Container: Clean your container thoroughly to remove any dust or residues. Ensure it has some drainage holes at the bottom, if possible.
- Add Glow-in-the-Dark Pebbles: Layer a base of glow-in-the-dark pebbles at the bottom. Leave a generous amount for a vibrant glow after dark. Optionally, sprinkle glow-in-the-dark paint over the soil.
- Add Potting Soil: Pour potting soil over the pebbles, filling the container halfway. Pat down the soil gently for a level surface.
