In BC I have had great success using 20 litre plastic pails with
handles(originally had dill pickles from a restaurant). The handles make
it easy for this old guy to move em around, sorta like follow the sun,
on my roof, up 120 ft. I put about 6 inches of stones in the bottom,
then GOOD planting soil, sterilized, although the rocks aint! and than
just plant my peppers.....4 plants to a pail, works like a charm, had
Habs and Thais in those pails for three years, but this year, I will
dump em and start anew.....Wots 20 L you ask???? Look it up, those with
Sherlock, should be easy, those without try Google! Cheers, Doug in BC
