I planted four homemade EarthBUCKETS yesterday! They look great, and hopefully, will enhance production, just like the regular EBs. My only concern is the water reservoir is not as deep as I'd hope it would be -- looks like about a gallon of water reserve. I could put something in the bottom bucket to raise the inner bucket and increase the holding capacity. But, I can't figure out what that "something" would be that would not take up the volume capacity.
It would need to be porous so water would flow through it and maintain the volume capacity; it would also need to hold the weight of the soil bucket sitting on top of it. Once the soil bucket is lifted higher, I could increase the water reservoir capacity. Any design ideas would be much appreciated...
