how many bags do I need for a 27 gallon base?

We put one bag in ours last yr and it works great. So far it weighs it down enough to keep up with Kansas wind

According to the instructions on the bag, one bag works for up to 40 gallons.

I ordered one for the portable basketball set I got for my grand-sons. One is sufficient. My daughter liked it a lot as they live where it freezes, and this prevents the water from freezing; AND to remove it from the base, if you need to, all you do is add salt, and it dissolves.

One pouch will be morexthan enough to take care of a 27 lb. base. Thank you.Jennifer Owens/BaseGel

I used approximately 8 bags. It worked well. Now the bed is full of healthy plants.

40L converts to about 10.5 gallons, but I found that the 13 gallon bags from Costco fit perfectly!

i used 1 bag but you may want to use 1 and a half or two bags. i myself don't like a lot in the tank. the one bag did cover the bottom.

There were four 8 X 11 bags that came with my unit, so you pretty much need to buy any other bags that you need to use!I bought pint sized bags (food saver brand) 5 X 9's and I went through the box last summer. Our new garden was a success.

I used about 10 bags of 2 cubic feet. If you could find some cheap (but clean, uncontaminated) fill dirt, you could use less good quality soil on top.

I am assuming that you mean bags of soil needed? I put in 8 bags of 40 lb. Miracle gro soil and will use it again this year.

I had to buy 30 gallon and fold the excess under the lid. 13 Gallon were too small.

Between 1-2 bags. 2 would give you a 3 inch bed making it perfect for plants and their roots.

If you could find a 9 or 10 gallon, that would work best. We use the 13 gallon but because the size of the compartments prevents totally filling the bag, there's always extra room when taking the bag out of the container. I usually empty the other household trash containers as well to help fill the bag.

I think you will need quite a bit for that. My guess is that you would need 8 of these two gallon companions. It never makes as much as you think it might. There should be some description saying how many cubic feet the two jugs make. You should be able to make a rough estimate from that. Sorry if this isn't much help.

You can use regular size 13 gallon bags for this. The Sam's Club bags work just fine.

They have their own custom bags which are the best fit. You can use a 13 gallon or higher though.

Four quarts in a gallon. This 28+ quart basket is equal to about 7 gallons so you would use an 8 gallon bag.

It is more convenient to use 13 gallon bags. 30 gallon bags will always require modification by pulling the draw strings and tying them at the top to keep the bag from hanging over the sides. If your okay with doing that each time then 30 gallon bags will work.

No more than 25 to 30 that's a guess. You will also need your base nuts. The box kit is your bloom boosters and additives. Each one is 30 ml per five gallons

We use "normal" 13-gallon bags from Costco, and even though they're a little baggy/long at the bottom, it's cheaper than buying the matching brand. I've never tried the 8-gallon but it's worth a shot.
