Question:

Does anyone remember a show on one of the home and garden channels about making a cement planter box?

I watched a show about 2 years ago and a lady made a cool planter box out of cement that takes a month or so to dry. Then she put a rock garden and other succulants and I would love to watch that again so I can make one. Thanks.

Answer:

Iwas going to say make a foam shape and make the concrete how yo want it then wait to dry..and pour acetone all over the foam to melt it and make sure its gone then youve got a planter! have fun :)
Hypertufa okorder /
these okorder / which has a video showing it. good luck and have fun
How funny! I do remember that but I think I saw it in a women's magazine. There was a kit that you could send off for and I think you molded the planter around something else and then it dry forever! I seem to recall that it was cement mixed with perlite, that stuff you usually mix in potting soil. Seems like you could just purchase some Quik Crete at the Home Depot and make a mess on your own! LOL Let me know if you do, I always wanted to make one as well!
