wow...don't we differ here! i must certainly change each and every pot's soil annually.

since i push each and every container to max. by continuous feedings through-out our short growing season it's extremely hard on the soil taking and removing all the nutrients that it has. by season's end all nutrients are completely drained out of the soil. i once tried to reuse some of the soil and what a problem it was, resulting in inferior grown.

i will however, use some of the previous years soil to fill the bottle of the extremely large pots that use pounds and pounds of soil.
