Re:plastic buckets

Ah. now I see what you mean...those plastic buckets sound like a very good idea ....very practical too..I will look for them at the places you mentioned & give it a try ...most of the containers I have used so far on my tomato plants I bought from OSH garden supply....most of them  are smaller tho (like one gallon or so)....I think the 5 gallon size will be alot better and the roots will have alot more room to grow.
Thanks for sharing  :)  I'm getting some great ideas here!

The buckets are white and they are 5 gallon plastic buckets that you can get from bakery's or grocery stores. Drainage for that bottom is 4 or 5 drilled holes. I plant my beans in the 3 gallon buckets because beans of course do not need that much root room. You can also get these buckets from any fast food place they are usually green, they get pickles in them.
Hope this helps.
