Building the Containers

Here are some of the 42 containers. These are food grade and came free from a soft drinks manufacturer.



























I thought you would like to see some of the labels showing what goes into this stuff! Needless to say we soaked them in water, cut the bottoms off, and pressure washed.

The conainers are about 20" high and 11" across with a quite large hole. We cut short pieces of wood to hold the wicking fabric above the hole. Also drilled a number of drainage holes in parts of the top that will be below the opening.
