I did the same thing critter. I also bought a dozen of them. They are so sturdy and a much better investment. I have been thinking of cutting the pvc pipe and I've been looking at using other stuff too. I did not make it to Home Depot as planned but I did find something to use in one of them. Or maybe two. DH had me cutting up boxes because where we live that is the only way that the recycle truck will take them. In a couple of the boxes was some plastic-looking styrofoam. I used that and it works great. You can see it in the photo, the white stuff under the plants. I'm thinking that I'll either styrofoam or pvc pipe, whichever is cheaper.
