Why sure you could. It would make a fine mobile planter.  Heck, if you do it right you can dig your own worms as you need them!   :P  :-X

On second thought, you can come up with better!   ;D

Playing in the dirt I see ;D Well, it keeps you out of mischief.

I like those tube planters. I was thinking about placing 6 of thenm around my garden on the posts. I thought a variety of flowers adjacent to the vegetable garden would attract more bees. Easier than trying to hang those coconut husk planters. Probably hold the moisture better as well.

Checked my flower gardens yesterday. I've got bulbs popping up all over. I was going to remove the chicken wire I put under the mulch to keep the deer from and squirrels from rooting around, but the bulbs seem to be growing right up through it just fine.

We're supposed to hit 70 today then down to 14 by Friday night. Sure hope they don't get frostbite.

Nice work Dom, I miss my greenhouse days.  I'm working on setting up a lean to house off the barn for early seedlings, and a late lettuce patch.  Just need to figure out how to heat it.  It's very small compared to yours, about 10 x 20.

Can you take a full pic of your lemon tree?  I have a small one in the house that we have picked four or five lemons off of so far.  I'd love to see it grow big enough to hold four or five at a time like yours!

Looks great Dom.

I've got the itch to play in the dirt. All on hold for now with 15 degrees and a little snow out there ;)

Gardening is an exercise in patience I guess.

I heat my little greenhouse using a small table lamp with a 150 watt light bulb. I made a shade for it out of a #10 can with a half a dozen "church-key" holes around the top with a finial hole in the center. It makes a nice little heater.   ;D

I think my space might be too big for that, unless I had a series of them.  The upper portion is around 10 feet tall. 

Maybe I could have a greenhouse inside of a greenhouse....And heat it with a light bulb......That's got me thinking.

I was super depressed looking at my garden covered in 3 feet of snow this morning.
