Growing in containers is a great way to grow your own food if you have
access to a little space on a balcony, patio or deck! Today I share some
tips on how I set up my container garden.
Good video. I used fabric shopping bags for my capsicums and the results
were amazing.
I strongly recommend using some sort of self watering mechanism for the
containers as they definitely dry out FAST. I found larry halls self
watering rain gutter system performed exceptionally well.
Where did you purchase your grow bags? The local big box store doesn’t sell
them as large as yours. The SIP’s (self irrigating planters) you have are
an interesting concept as well. Thanks for sharing!

Great ideas for container gardening. I like hearing about renters that
create “growing solutions”, rather than excuses. Container gardening is an
ideal option for renters. I’m looking forward to the chlorine episode.
Hi Steve, great tip about the mint. It is true that if left to its own
devices mint will definitely take over the garden in no time. However if
you can keep it under control mini is good companion plant to cabbage and
tomatoes, improving both the taste and health of these plants. Mint also
deters aphid, the white cabbage fly and the black tea beetle and in large
quantities rats and mice. (but not rabbits – my long eared snuggly friends
love to eat as much mint as they can sink their little teeth into.)
Happy Gardening,
Scarlett

Cool new test about microbes, might tie in with the compost tea field
trials?
I knew I could leave it to you to finally test the chlorine water
assumption. :)

Excellent tips on container growing, Stephen! I look forward to the video
on chlorine in tap water.

Good stuff mate. Great explanation. I have just made another wicking bed.
Nice looking potted garden Stephen.. Do you treat rosemary as an annual
there or is it one that over winters OK ?

We have 3 acres to grow in and we still grow lots of food in containers.
Container growing is awesome.
0:18 only in the northern hemisphere!
The wicking bed is a great idea, you break everything down in a really nice
informative way.
Really nice Stephen! I put my fig tree in my unheated garage in winter and
it does great…unless somebody forgets to close the garage door at -30 :D
