Eleven-25 gallon feed tubs...and I do basically the same as you. 2020 will the 5th year using that technique, although you've inspired me to do a cover crop this time around. I have a Southern rootknot nematode problem in my in-ground tomato patch, so I'll be planting a mustard cover crop there this winter. Might as well do it in the containers also! What all do you grow in your containers?
