Do you put drainage holes in them?

No, you put melons, tomatoes and cucmbers in 'em.

Sorry, couldn't resist.

I never have noshed, they dry out too quickly anyway, without drainage holes too!!

they already have tiny holes in the bag,top tip of the day

get a handfull of manure and when you cut the hole out shove the manure inside the grow bag

what about putting in some chopped up sponges as well as the manure to try to retain water?

im trying :oops:
