Nothing will grow in them if there's no water.. We water ours sometimes twice a day...If you look on line or some stores carry them but you can get battery powered self watering baskets...

Yeah, it is for sure. But, I was dabbling to see if stuff would start ok. Still have more than enough to do a direct sow. There's plenty of time yet.I'll probably start some in bigger pots when the real time comes. I'll be covering the beds to speed things up. Rg
Many years ago I started seeds that way.....for a certain cash crop of the time.. Worked very well. Never made any profits though. They all went up in smoke.Rg
