I have been rotating 5-7 gallon food grade plastic contaners since Y2K. I rotate out when the plants first come in, so I water with them, and then again toward late in the growing season.
All of it gets used, always mark month/year on a peice of tape.
Any larger containers are too hard to move, any smaller is kind of irrelevant... until I would really need it.
