Well jackjr, you're going to have to spend a little to make this work. Get a 5 gallon bucket or a similar container. Get some cheap fertilizer like Schultz 10-15-10 at Lowe's or Home Depot or similiar store. While you at the hardware store, get enough potting soil to fill the larger container. You could probably get all this stuff at your local Walmart too. Fill container with soil and put the plant in it. The fertilizer is just 7 drops in a gallon of water. Water the plant with that mix. This is about as cheap as it gets. Best of luck.
