Could someone tell me what size pots I should get?
Oh, I forgot to ask if it would just as good (and cheaper) to use
everyday
cheap plastic buckets and poke holes in the bottoms for drainage, or are
buckets too large?

I have been using those black flower tubs they sell in some
supermarkets. We put holes in the bottom and sit them in those plastic
dishes you can buy. The black tubs are about 12" across at the top and
about 15" high. The supermarket (Morrisons) used to sell them for 10p
each but have now caught on sell them in packs of 6-8. I am going to
try one for cucumbers this year. Diana


Thanks, Diana. In Morrisons, are they in a gardening section or at the
florist area, or elsewhere? I've never seen the flower tubs you mention,
so I don't quite know what to look for, but I'll go to Morrison's this
weekend and see what they have.

Thanks.
