One Change I made for safety in Plant Pole -- 8 Hanging Plants in Less Than 2 sq. ft. of Greenhouse Space

Make this plant pole for under $20 in about an hour. It uses less than 2 feet of floor space in your greenhouse. It holds small to medium-sized pots (herbs, seedlings, etc.). Great for on the patio too. As an added bonus, a light can be hung at the top, which will be handy when you absolutely must go to the greenhouse after dark :) Feeling really creative? Paint and decorate the pole.

I decided I needed to put something on the ends of each hanger on the pole (to make sure I didn't poke my eye on it). My husband had some Styrofoam golf balls - so we put those on the end. You could use something smaller (those are just what we had on hand).

great idea! I bet it would also be stable enough (and easier to store) if you put the pole in a bucket of sand rather than cement.
