Growing Season

After last years "drowning" of our plants we decided this year to utilize "wicking beds" build from IBC totes. They have a water reservoir in the bottom to keep the soil moist and wick the water to the roots. If it rains it drains through overflow ports keeping the water at the same level at all times.

Today - after torrential rain in Houston. Garden drained well and IBC totes are perfect!
