Re: Containers


Does anyone have any suggestions for something I can fill the bottom of 
the container with that would be light, take up lots of space, and not 
interfere with drainage?

Try styrofoam packing peanuts.  We get quite a few at work, and I save 
them.  I've used them in several large pots, and they work very well.  I 
believe that styrofoam is an inert material, so it doesn't release any 
harmful chemicals into the soil.  I wish I'd discovered them years ago, 
before I filled the bottom of whiskey barrels with gravel!
