I got an idea for an earth box and thought that I should share it since it's very easy to make. Basically, all I did was put a 2ft strip of wood on both sides of an old $12 tote I got from Lowes and drilled some holes. I got a 3.25-inch space off the bottom of the stacked tote, and it holds about 3.50 gallons of water with a 2-inch bottom drain hole. My 4-inch net cup is 3 inches deep, so I put a quarter inch wicking rope through the bottom of the net cup to soak up the quarter inch play. I also screwed a 4-inch net cup in the middle underneath the top tote to give the middle a little support.

These totes are about 5 years old, and were kept out in the sun, so they are kind of heavy duty.
