kitty litter earthbox post
the earthbox design keeps a reservoir of water that is available to wick up into the soil at all times so doesn't dry out. i've even kept tomatoes alive into the summer longer in them. (hard to do in the florida heat)

i have some commercial ones, but they are a bit pricey. i do appreciate their research and development and highly recommend them. the kitty litter knockoff was an act of desperation when i needed a planter and had a growing pile of kitty litter pails!
going out to cut off leaves now. thanks.
