It goes all around the planter and it also covers about half of the bottom. Then, I filled it up with soil. I did this for two reasons. First, because the pond liner is impermeable, it will keep the water in the soil. Nothing will seep out trough the sides of the planter. Second: the liner will keep moisture away from the wood the planter is made from... the planter should last longer that way. When I set up my planters, I lined them on the inside with pond liner.

If memory serves me correct, last year you planted corn seedlings. When did you start them indoors, is there a trick to it? Everybody tells me not to start them indoors, roots are too sensitive However, I refuse to listen to them. :) Hey Patti, enjoy your videos.
