Each barrel with get 80lbs of river rocks, and MANY bags of moisture potting mix, along with all the fertilizer I can pack in.
I'll be making 10 foot metal ladders that will fit in the barrel and be permanently held by the rocks etc....I figure this setup will be hurricane proof and last till Dale is old!
More pics later.
