[QUOTE="Mr.Glock, post: 4271348, member: 32877"] Top soil is what we put in ours. We put 3 pieces of French drain 4’ pipe in the bottom, line it with weedstop, then fill with top soil with a piece of 1” pvc pipe to the bottom. Cut a hole in the side at 5”. I compost top soil and every three years change it out, out the used back in rotation of compost. I think the wife is making a mistake by watering from the top when the plants start their growth. Watering from only the bottom makes the roots run to water in my opinion. So was curious as to how others water their tubs. I will mix in some of the ProMix BX in them next year, maybe that will aid in wicking better? [/QUOTE]
