Building Budget Bucket Gardens

In this video I do some container gardening.
How to make a cheap low budget container garden.

I figure that the buckets are 5 for $12.50 One planter that is the same size costs about $10.
The compost that I used cost about $7 per bag, potting mix about $10. The fertiliser is about a dollar. I grew the plants from seed. So the plants I used cost about $3. I reused the 6-pack seed starting trays that I bought with some other flowers in them.

If you don't have a drill, you can cut drain holes with a sharp knife.

If you are going to grow 3 plants, sunflowers, corn and beans, for example, that would be about $10 for seeds. But that would be enough seeds for 15 buckets.

So somewhere around $20-40.
