As long as you are following the rules, good high in nitrogen compost and a consistent watering program so they don't dry out or get water logged, I can't see why this wouldn't work.

What do you think of these? To fill in the bottom I put some empty plastic water bottles. Hi -I planted some tomatoes in 5 gallon containers. What do you think of these?

Seems to work well, so all we do is mix grass cuttings and kitchen waste in a compost bin. Wait until it is really well rotted and dig it into the soil. I think as our soil is quite good that's all we need to do. So no, haven't really experimented a lot as we don't really need to at the moment. We also use 4'x 8'raised beds, so weeding is fairly easy. Hi Norm, we have settled on using our own compost as a feed now.
