The barrels will get filled with a good soil mix then planted with some fruit/citrus trees. I did that to keep the vermin cong from eating the roots and killing the trees. Plus sand is not conducive to growing very much without massive amounts of amendments and water. We had 4 ornamental plants on the east side that the vc got to. There went $150 to feed the gophers. I did finally win the battle but lost the plants. So all the new stuff will be in large sized pvc, 10/12" 2' long, with wire mesh on the bottom. Luckily on the digging portion, it's just damp sand so its easy. Just a lot of volume. Barrels and pvc were free.
