Dude these cats can't prove anything. They think proof is posting pics of gardens that aren't complete. Then they act like they just can't do the same as me and just prove what they claim THIS year. I posted a updated pic of the Mango and will continue to post updates until she is ready. They are talking loud and saying nothing, but can't do what I am doing. I can post the root ball of the Mango at ANY given time just to show these punks that they are on some bullshit. Here is a better shot of the Mango with my girl standing next to it. I just put the last of my plants out today. I doubt any of these punks have a plant this size yet....

Hopsnmalt has the answer. If I couldn't get used 25 gals pots from a nursery for free I would use the HD, Lowes, Wallyworld, roped handles tubs. They sell them this time if the year for beer, soda, and the such. To camo these pots is easy, just buy a camo tarp to cut into strips, than tape around pot, just that easy. Remember to cut long enough to cover all the way around the pot, it is longer than than you may think, just measure the total distance around. Good luck, oh and remember to share with those less fortunate.

the dimensions of my box are 3ftx3ftx3ft pretty fucking big ass pot if you ask me i see some of you guys are using 100+ gal pots/bags so i figured fuck it why not even though this is probably 500gal or more. with the right amendments the plant i put in there should get the 5+ lbs that u and some others get this wont be started till next year so at this point it still just talk but i figured it fit with the thread

Just when you thought you had the biggest.

You would need full 6yd dump truck to fill it!
