They make great tomato buckets, just drill some holes in the bottom, there seems to be plenty about with all the christmas flowers, at 99p for 8 grab yourself a bargain. Also used by the professionals!!!

Yes, I've been using them for some years.
Just be careful how you drill ... they tend to crack if you don't use a countersink type bit.
I usually just heat up a screwdriver and make holes with that ... best to do it outside or the fumes will get youAll gardeners know better than other gardeners." -- Chinese Proverb.Comment

I've been using them for years too. A real bargain and you're saving them from landfill.Into each life some rain must fall........but this is getting ridiculous.

I just use an old soldering iron, goes through them like butter. I put 4 or 5 holes about 1/2 inch up the sides instead of the bottom, acts like a little moisture trap in the bottom them and cuts down on wateringOriginally posted by Two_Sheds View PostKernow rag nevra

I asked at my local tesco about the flower buckets, the lad was a bit not all there he said that they dont sell or give them away
I might ask at customer services though.
