The Great Container Garden Experiment of 2015 is off to a roaring start! I still have zinnia and pickle seeds to sow plus I need to transplant some extra herbs I started inside, but the majority of everything is planted. It still remains to be seen how these all produce given their limited soil ranges, but I am enjoying seeing what works and what doesn't. With about $100 invested, everything looks pretty and is growing....so far successful!
Inside just the containers in these pictures I have at least of 2 of all the following: romas, super sweet tomatoes, banana peppers, 2 types of bell, 5 types of hot peppers, early cantaloupe, sugar baby watermelon, and butternut squash, zucchini, cucumbers, snap and snow peas, Bush beans, onions, lettuce, spinach, cabbage, and about a dozen different types of herbs. Plus flowers. I know realistically these are not all going to work out, but I strategically placed the same type of plant in different places and pots to see what is successful and what is just a waste of time.
Time will tell!
