Hi Cris,
There might be a possibility of contamination. It’s definitely something to consider! I’m definitely not an expert in this department. Let me know what you decide to do.

A brick or some rocks in the bottom can help anchor the pot. Then the peanuts, then the soil. Obviously this doesn’t keep it light, but in your case, you want it bottom heavy.
