Five-gallon buckets make terrific containers for a huge number of vegetables. Not only do they hold just enough <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hobbyfarms.com\/6-homemade-potting-soil-recipes-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">potting soil<\/a> for roots to thrive, but they don&#8217;t take up a lot of room on a crowded patio or deck. Each bucket is home to one vegetable plant and perhaps two or three smaller herbs or annual flowers. Using 5-gallon buckets, you can grow as many different vegetables as you&#8217;d like. They&#8217;re easy to move around the deck or patio to maximize sunlight exposure, and come fall, the plants can readily be protected from early frosts by simply tossing a bed sheet over them. Here&#8217;s how to build a 5-gallon bucket garden.<\/p>\n<h2>Pick\u00a0The Right Buckets<\/h2>\n<p>When selecting buckets for your 5-gallon-bucket garden, try to avoid any that were used to store questionable materials, such as pool chemicals, tar, asphalt, pesticides or herbicides. Instead, look for buckets that were used for food-grade materials or clay-based kitty litter, or ones that were simply used for odd jobs around the house.<\/p>\n<h2>Pick The Right Vegetables<\/h2>\n<p>After you have your collection of buckets, focus on selecting the correct vegetable varieties. Seek out smaller-statured vegetable varieties for your 5-gallon-bucket garden whenever possible. Determinate or genetically dwarf tomato varieties perform the best in these buckets, as do bush-type cucumbers and winter squash. For this project, I used a pickling cucumber, but other good veggie choices garden include <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hobbyfarms.com\/3-eggplants-i-love-to-grow\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">eggplants<\/a>, tomatillos, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hobbyfarms.com\/gaga-for-ground-cherries\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">ground cherries<\/a> (<em>Physalis pruinosa<\/em>), pole beans (as long as you use a trellis to support them), zucchini, cabbage, peppers, broccoli and chard. You can also grow a broad range of salad greens in 5-gallon buckets.<\/p>\n<h2>What You&#8217;ll Need:<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>1 plastic, 5-gallon bucket for each plant<\/li>\n<li>roll of burlap (if you&#8217;d like to cover the bucket)<\/li>\n<li>jute or plastic twine<\/li>\n<li>enough 50\/50 potting soil\/compost blend to fill all the buckets<\/li>\n<li>1 feature plant for each bucket<\/li>\n<li>2 to 3 &#8220;filler&#8221; plants for each bucket<\/li>\n<li>cordless drill with 1\/2-inch drill bit<\/li>\n<li>scissors<\/li>\n<li>eye protection (for drilling)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>Step 1<\/strong><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_46232\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-46232\" style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-46232 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/img.hobbyfarms.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/05163445\/five-gallon-bucket-garden-step-1-drill-bucket-e.jpg\" alt=\"drilling drainage holes in a bucket garden\" width=\"800\" height=\"1048\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-46232\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Jessica Walliser<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Flip over each of the buckets and use the drill with bit to create three to five drainage holes in the bottom of each bucket.

To prevent damage to any plants, allow the paint to fully dry prior to planting the buckets.<\/p>\n<p>This article about planting a bucket garden was written for Hobby Farms magazine. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hobbyfarms.com\/subscribe-new\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Click here to subscribe.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Grow a garden anywhere you have space by using 5-gallon buckets. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":20,"featured_media":46231,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[58],"tags":[597,745],"class_list":["post-46204","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-crops-gardening","tag-gardening","tag-vegetable-garden"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v22.0 (Yoast SEO v24.3) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Bucket Garden: How to Use a 5-Gallon Bucket Can Grow Veggies - Hobby Farms<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"A five-gallon bucket garden is a great way to harvest lots of homegrown produce from a very small space using recycled containers.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/admin.hobbyfarms.com\/build-five-gallon-bucket-garden\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Bucket Garden: Use a 5-Gallon Bucket To Grow Veggies\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"A five-gallon bucket garden is a great way to harvest lots of homegrown produce from a very small space using recycled containers.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/admin.hobbyfarms.com\/build-five-gallon-bucket-garden\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Hobby Farms\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:publisher\" content=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/hobbyfarms\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:author\" content=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/jessica.walliser\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2025-04-22T07:00:38+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2025-05-07T15:52:17+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/img.hobbyfarms.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/05163355\/five-gallon-bucket-garden-vegetables-e.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"800\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"462\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Jessica Walliser\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:creator\" content=\"@jessicawalliser\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:site\" content=\"@hobbyfarms\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Jessica Walliser\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"3 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"Article\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/admin.hobbyfarms.com\/build-five-gallon-bucket-garden\/#article\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/admin.hobbyfarms.com\/build-five-gallon-bucket-garden\/\"},\"author\":{\"name\":\"Jessica Walliser\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.hobbyfarms.com\/#\/schema\/person\/7fa3ef4be35655ef43cc197c4f959aa3\"},\"headline\":\"Bucket Garden: Use a 5-Gallon Bucket To Grow Veggies\",\"datePublished\":\"2025-04-22T07:00:38+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2025-05-07T15:52:17+00:00\",\"mainEntityOfPage\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/admin.hobbyfarms.com\/build-five-gallon-bucket-garden\/\"},\"wordCount\":714,\"commentCount\":0,\"publisher\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.hobbyfarms.com\/#organization\"},\"image\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/admin.hobbyfarms.com\/build-five-gallon-bucket-garden\/#primaryimage\"},\"thumbnailUrl\":\"https:\/\/img.hobbyfarms.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/05163355\/five-gallon-bucket-garden-vegetables-e.jpg\",\"keywords\":[\"gardening\",\"vegetable garden\"],\"articleSection\":[\"Crops &amp;
