Thank you sanjo, i am still using my cocoa linning but last year i didnt line them at all, when i watered my plants,the water just ran thru, i ended up having to stand my hanging baskets in buckets of water to give them a good soaking, and after the magpies and other birds have been at them they are getting a bit bold in some places. Planted five baskets up today( only eight more to do) gave them all a good watering and all look ok (so far) lol.
