    Huh, I would have thought that the soil would clog up the drain in a bathtub. I guess I'm thinking about a mesh screen covering the drain getting clogged like hair does.

    It seeps continuously at varying rates depending on how saturated the soil is.

    Any ideas for a more permanent solution than the orange fencing? Everything I find "pre-made" either doesn't have curved options to make the 180° end, or is $100+ per ft.

    I think if it's 2-2.5ft tall it'll be enough to dissuade the dog from hopping and digging into the shrubs. Nothing will keep the toddler out.

    What about a few rows of retaining wall bricks? Not sure of your budget, or how that would work out, but I think that would look nice and do the job.

    Welp my season started off great. Started my seeds early, not as early as is best but early for me. Heat mat and all had 100 percent germination. Left them a few days too long under cellophane and 80% gone. Going to have to restart this weekend. Doh. Back to my usual schedule.
