Put one end of each S-hook into the holes at the top of the shoe bag. Hang the other end of each hook from a tree branch or on the top of a fence where the shoe bag will be exposed to sunlight at least 6 hours of the day.
Fill each pouch with potting soil, stopping when the level of the soil is 1 inch below the top of the pouch.
Plant one seedling in each pouch. Use smaller herbs like mint, lavender or chives, or miniature versions of vegetables such as Tiny Tom tomatoes or Bushmaster cucumber.
Water each pouch thoroughly. Check the soil at least once a day, as it will dry out more quickly than soil in the ground. Water the pouches whenever the soil feels dry by turning the hose on the entire wall of plants and pockets.
