      I'd worry that stones would tear the bags, although I do use them to weigh down my pots.

      If I want lightweight drainage (crocks) I use old bottle tops, chunks of polystyrene or even small upturned flower pots

        If you look on the new shoots thread you will find a post 'How many plants per container list'. You may find this helpful.
