I hear ya! Something has been digging in the big tomato pots but not as vigorously as in yours. These are small holes, maybe several inches wide and deep. I suspect squirrels.
Every year the indoor plants go outside for the summer and the squirrels dig in them. For the past several years my sister has been putting pine cones in the pots to cover the soil surface and it seems to have deterred them. This isn't the time of year to be collecting nice prickly pine cones but I'm sure if I root around the property long enough I can find some. Hopefully enough to cover 21 buckets and then hope it works!
