recycled grocery bag

That is indeed a recycled plastic grocery bag. I had fair luck last year growing tomatoes in milk crates lined with cardboard. This year I zip-tied a couple bags into each crate- they are dark colored, sturdy, and porous- all good things for growing tomatoes. The volume of each bag is just a touch more than the half cubic foot of soil the Square Foot Gardening book says is perfect for one plant.
