    Because railing planters are expensive

    Never seen this such a good idea!

    I wonder how many lbs those railings are rated for with all of those full of water.

    Not to mention the zip strips not seeming like enough to support the buckets. I wonder what the handles are rated for now that I’m thinking about it 🤔

    Love the redneck engineering, OP! Keep us posted

    I think it’s good right now while the plants are small, they will need more room later.  last year my plants in 5 gal buckets were 35” across.

    This is cool! They might all end up growing and tangling into each other though. Food for thought.

    I appreciate that you’re making the best of what you got! Keep on growing! I’d maybe double or triple up on the zip ties though. Or metal wire.

    I give it a solid 6 out of 6 buckets.
    Cool setup, kinda redneck…like the stuff I do.
