Just depends on medium used. Use potting soil and mix a few handfuls of
well rotted manure (about 42.50CDN) per bag. Use a soluable fertilizer
too when watering. Experiment to see what works best for you. Just one
thing to remember, use garbage bags, shopping bags are too small and sun
will cook the roots in shopping bags.
