I have about 15 five gallon buckets filled soil sitting on my lanai, my veggie garden that died two summers ago and I've not had it in me to go out there to lug it all away. That's one project, I will get to end of this summer, promise. Wish I could resuse some of the soil, but not up to the work involved to make it reusable.
I have a brown thumb. If it's not a weed...I can't grow it.
I don't blame you for not wanting to move all that stuff. Wait until it's cooler out!

Those plastic buckets are what I use to grow, cherry tomatoes, Roma, Beefsteak, & strawberries, on my deck. The deer don't usually bother them...
check and check. Honestly, there isn't a tool he doesn't have. My garage looks like sandford and son and I REFUSE to organize it. The only thing in there is my bike and it hangs from the ceiling. Everything else is his.
It's really unorganized (well, at least to my standards). I hate that space. It makes me twitch just walking through it. LOL
Mine was pretty organized though I was bad about leaving the procrastination on the work bench.

I tried growing tomatoes, cucs, zuccini, green beans and a few other things in those buckets, but as I mentioned in another post, blight took most away. Sigh. It was fun when that started materializing, but what a pain when the reaper came to take them. Plus all the watering and experimenting with turning some of the bucketets into self-watering contraptions got the best of me. It was fun while it lasted. I will grow the basil again, since that was pretty easy for me to birth and maintain.
But Sixy, like you, I have a thumb of death, kill much of what it touches. I've even had snake plants die on me.
