Yea, I kind of figured I was going overboard. I did use six 50 lb bags of cheap drainages gravel to get about 6" of rock on the bottom and used two 40lb bags of compost as some filler to cut on the cost. Still needed a good bit of potting soil to finish it off. It was close to $80 when it was all said and done.
I'm hoping the mint takes off quickly. Goes good with bourbon and tea!
