Think of all the plastic bottles in land fills which could be used to grow food for people all over the world.

Looks like a lot of work if you don't have to. But if you have a small yard and have to stack it on shelves, it's great.

Gardeners need different types of containers in order to grow plants perfectly. Generally necessity of garden container depends on the area of gardening.
