    Looks good. Pallets would work too. If you see your not containing enough heat to help in the break down process, you can always shove tin inside around the walls. With the lid as it is the hot air will still rise and escape. Keep us posted.

    LEMONS! WE GOT LEMONS! Damn Lemon Trees are CRAAAZY!

    I moved the Lemon Tree into the basement a few weeks ago and made sure it got afternoon sun and plenty of water. Lemons have really started to turn a nice plump size and a sweet yellow color. This particular lemon tree has to be about 9 maybe 10 years old and I keep the little bastard pruned pretty small and so far it produces lemons every other year or maybe every third year. Strange but fun!

    Our lemon tree is a snowflake. We feed it and water it and keep it trimmed and looking nice. It produces nothing.
