The easiest way to put holes in a bucket is by a long piece of close hanger wire or a piece of wire of the same size. Use your torch and heat up the tip of your wire. You can make about four holes before having to heat the wire up again.
The bucket is now very effective at soaking up water. You can add pebbles of rocks at the bottom part of your growing portion of your bucket.
Buckets can be expensive. I bought three buckets for a dollar a piece at my local bakery store. Go to your store and ask, "Do you have any buckets?" They might just give you some. Meeks have 5 gallon buckets for $4.00-WalMart and Lowes are about three dollars. What a rip off.
