will a 8 quart bag of soil fill it up
1491071
I have an 8 lb. bag of soil and it would take probably another 4 lbs to fill it up. I put rocks in the bottom of my 2 to weigh them down as they are light and the wind could knock them over. Maybe with rocks as weight and drainage, the 8 lb. bag would work.I have ours outside at the front door and they look great! I also painted ours a bronze color.

Julie, I bought 16 bags of soil and that worked just fine. Make sure you place a weed barrier down underneath the soil..

I put a quart of water in the bag. It was a little less than half full and seemed like it would be strong enough for what you want.

Beware these bags are small. Probably fill up like 1 and a half 3gal pots. Look for the large bags online if not find your local hydro store

I would have to say that it almost fills two cubic feet. I use it as a soil additive. Two clumps will give you more than enough I would say. You will have extra. I suggest using hot water for quick expansion.

We used a large bag of Mircle-Gro potting soil that we picked up at Costco. I think it took two bag, but I don't remember. I also mixed in some alfala meal, bone meal, blood meal, and manure, that may have been overkill, but it seems to work. The only mistake I made was not realizing that onions don't want all of that fertilizer, and I may need to plant them in another location.

Yes , it just takes enough rain/water to soak it into ground. Even if it doesnt rain a lot it will help get granules down against the dirt/soil

Hi,I believe they recommend using the whole bag of their Dolomite mixed in top 4" of soil. Probably most important for plants like tomatoes.

Go Square Foot Garden Forums and get all the scoop. I presume you have also purchased the latest book, Square Foot Gardening, which has quantities. Off the top of my head I believe it would be four bags of Mel's to one 4 x 4 box, along with the compost and vermiculite and peat moss.

Four quarts in a gallon. This 28+ quart basket is equal to about 7 gallons so you would use an 8 gallon bag.

We used a combination of Miracle Grow potting soil and garden soil. 2 large bags of each and had about 1/2 bag left over.

I am assuming that you mean bags of soil needed? I put in 8 bags of 40 lb. Miracle gro soil and will use it again this year.

It goes all the way to the bottom. You don't have to fill it with soil, you can use packing peanuts to fill it half way up, then soil on top.

Not sure. About 1/4 of bag grew. Very low plants. I did not add anything. Watered. Sowed 1/8 - 1/4".

I am not sure on the 8 quart, I have the 6 quart. I am sorry I was not able to help you.

My grow bed is 6" x 12" x 18", which is about a quarter of the volume as yours. I used 3/4ths of a bag, so I would expect yours to take about 3 of these bags.
