Galvanized water troughs can be used as raised planters. The big containers look great, offer plenty of planting space, and will last for years. You can find the troughs, which are also called livestock tanks, at feed stores. The tanks aren't cheap--they typically run between $115 and $175 depending on the size.

How to make a planter from a milk carton
Check the slideshow here: Urban Gardening: Kräuter ziehen im Tetrapak http://goo.gl/zGnr1
I typically cut the container just below the "Low Fat" sign here:
1% Organic milk from Costco
Don't forget to make 2 drainage holes in the bottom of the container (use a knife or a screwdriver).
Beets (front) and garlic (back) planted in recycled containers
