Anyone grow out of 5 gal buckets?
My wife's grandpa starts his this way every year. There's room for maybe a half dozen seeds, depending on the plant. Stuff like tomatos he will start that way then transplant them to individual spots until they get large enough for in the ground. His individual spots are just 3 inch PVC that he but into maybe 4 inch sections, and he has them all lined up on old lumber, with a garden hose rigged up to 1 inch PVC with holes drilled in it so he can water all of the stuff in his redneck greenhouse. But he has like 5 acres to farm on so he does a lot of the seedlings and planting in there before moving them out.

I did the bucket thing a few years ago before I started my garden. Plants did great and produced pretty good. The problems I came across was by summer time the dirt would get depleted and dry pretty quick. I was having to water twice a day.
