Merrymath, Are you covering the outside of the box with quick crete? Using the crumple newspaper (insulation) on the inside to support the weight? I did something like that using a beer box (a bottle case) they are pretty heavily constructed. I filled it up and then covered the whole box with a plastic bag and then a loose chicken wire frame. Final step was a hypertufa shell on the outside pushing it though the chicken wire frame to make it stronger. It's a nice planter that I have used for years.
