My (Seedy) Ritual on New Year's Day - Page 2

I was just going to share what I did this past week to my trainer. I am a firm beliver of forcing the issue to see if it works. I built a 10 gallon Earth Tainer. I put landscape fabric and cut enough that I shoved it down into the wicking chamber (It was all in 1 piece). I then filled the wicking chamber up with soil and filled up the remaining space in the EarthTainer. It did wick the water up into the container very well. That way I did not have to mess with cutting screen or anything. So far it has worked wonderful. I have planted some carrots in it. If I did something horrible let me know
