Hello, I’ve been watching your channel for a while. The plants that are as you say aggressive can you take a 55 gallon drum or something a little bit bigger cut it in half and plant them so that they are contained in one spot now if you have anchorage and you don’t care, that’s one thing, but if you live in a town or a city and you’re using your backyard as a garden, wouldn’t that be more feasible?
