Krazy Medic's Log 2011

I started some new plants in Earth Barrels which are a self watering container made out of a 55 gallon food grade plastic barrel. My growing medium consists of peat, vermiculite, Black Cow, Black Hen & Mushroom Compost. This mix make a very light and airy growing media. I purchased several plants from a local grower and planted these on July 13th, 2011. Below are some pictures about two weeks after planting.
