Corn on the Rise (and other stuff)
Corn on the Rise (and other stuff)
Corn is finally peeking out, but something has been digging it up and chomping seedlings, too. I shotgunned it, so I can afford the losses. More stuff in a comment to follow

I don't know how deep your buckets are, but after three years of growing sweet potatoes, I found out they'll grow down 24"-36" . So a deep bed is best.
That's actually just a section of cattle fencing with some landscaping fabric around the bottom to hold in my growing medium (3:1 compost/native soil). Kind of a raised bed/cage situation
I got decent results last year in tubs, but there were some drainage issues. I'm hoping, as you said, going bottomless gives me more room to stretch and won't give a a bunch of rotten potatoes
