Any ideas?  The 5 gallon bucket simply won't fit so I have to come up with something creative but not heavy to top the tarp.  Thanks.

Thank you. Costs about $14 but worked perfectly.

you just may need to tie it down by the handles, just in case a strong wind happens.

Looks good though!  I did mine today, two trees, I am still able to use a 6 gallon wine juice pail. Lots of work, glad I started container growing ;)

Hi,
Grab some white paint and paint two eyes and a mouth on the trashcan :)
You could paint it like a human or a duck... Would be funny ...
