I saved the copper gutters when new ones were installed on my home. I'd like to use them to hang on the patio wall and fill with soil for strawberry plants. Has anyone done this? Can you provide instructions? Thanks.

Happy planting! 🍓
I google it and gardeners suggested to not plant in them unless you use them as a holder. Maybe look for rectangle shape trays at the local garden shop!! Good luck and have fun!!!
I would not use them to plant in them .Maybe research using them as a art sculpture?
I love the idea of hanging them on your patio wall. You could plant trailing plants, succulents, etc., in them as well.
Whatever you do, don't throw them away. If you ever decide you no longer want them, sell them or take them to a scrap dealer. Copper is really valuable nowadays.
