My Red Firehouse subs bucket garden

[ecopepper]

I was looking for a bunch of cheap buckets that had no bad Chemicals in it. So my friend told me they sell them at the sub shop for $2.00. And they are red. How cool? So I have 10 and I have roma tomato plants and cukes in them so far. Behind them on the fence is 4 by 4 wire that I had DH run along the whole back yard area. I had a bad crop of tomatoes last year except for one in a pot. Hope these pictures come up. It's been a while since I had posted pictures.

Oh those look fun! Good plan (and good price too)!

They should work out perfectly! All the gardening catalogs swear you get earlier ripening fruit, with the color red- so you should be all set! Happy Gardening!

Thank you I knew there was something about red ground coverings or something in one of my books. Will keep you posted.
