Hey Quyen! My beans get about 18" tall. The hanging basket is 16" in diameter, and 10" deep. I got them at Big Lots for $3.99 each. I put one whole packet of seeds in each basket. Lightly cover with soil and water with chamomile tea for fast germination. This is a picture of seedlings at 10days old.

Frank, a 5 gallon pail could hold at least a pack of seeds, although string bean roots aren't that deep you could put half a pack in a 1 gallon container, which I used to use before I got the hanging baskets.
