so its like a self watering planter? i have a bunch of them because its what i started with but dont use them any more.most of them besides 4 went through the water to fast and required atleast daily watering which was a headache.im gonna try the other 4 which worked well with some ww-clones they did seem to grow a little bit faster like it was hydro

im sorry but go to a place called walmart and use ur BRAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! good lord man.
Do you want to drive me the 100+ miles to wal-mart? How about the extra 50 miles to the one that has a respectible garden center. I know I damn sure am not riding my bike there. Then carry back tubs That are probably bigger than me up and down the mountains. Thanks but i used my brain and asked a question for some other ideas. Good lord man

I use a small kiddie pool, Or if you can afford just get yourself a flood table , at my local hydro store a white 4x4 is only 90 bucks, but the kiddie pool was only 3 bucks at wally world

Thank you for all of the replys. And I apologize to budreaky for the above post if it came off wrong but I live in a weird area where there are too many people around me to grow out side but not enough for large stores. We have a general store that sells a little bit of everything, the farm supply store that u need to be a member to shop or the supermarket. I have slim pickings. The next time I'm in a city I will have to go shopping

or get stuff shipped to you,look online enough and youll find stuff with free shipping or some way for you to come out ahead on it, its hard not having a vehicle living in a small little town that doesnt have jack shit for stores and not knowing anyone who you would trust enough to let them know your growing. if you ask them to give you a ride to the next bigger town and want to go to the hydro store or you come out of lowes or home depot with a fuck ton of garden supplies you know they are going to wonder and even if they dont actually know people will still speculate on shit like that, that was the problem i had for the longest time.
