Where there is a will - there is a way...
The use of boxes and containers in gardening
is, also, productive...
Here is my attempt in growing food
in containers and boxes:
I had Garvin and Hyrum tear out the plants that were
growing on the "morning" side of the house...
It gets lots of sun and I noticed that
it was the first area to thraw out in the winter...
I wanted to take advantage of it...
so, I had Garvin build me all these mini boxes...
NEXT SPRING, I will plant tomatoes, peppers, herbs,
and other plants that are more "warm-hearted"...
I transplanted some herbs into some of the boxes
that I know will survive the WINTERS here.
I was able to plant in this ONE box:
Tomatoes, asparagus (I let them go to seed this first year),
onions, garlic, and peppers
Peppers planted among the tomatoes
The HAIL STORM cut the tops off my
onions...The onions seem to be fine...
but, I was SHOCKED at the damage the hail did...
Planted many of my herbs in containers, also
Peppers in containers
More herbs
There are all types of containers
Some of mine...I can store water in the bottom
of the container...if I have to leave for a few days...
