May 3, 2017 by Jeanne

These free container gardening tips are available for you to download today. If you’ve always wanted to grow vegetables or herbs but have limited room or sunlight, container gardens are the way to go.

Even though I am now blessed with acres of land, I still grow a container garden. Perhaps it’s a habit, but it’s more about convenience than anything else.  I usually plant some cherry tomatoes in containers on the deck just so they are close to the kitchen. It keeps them handy for salads.

I’ve put together a free tip sheet for readers that includes some of my favorite tips for growing plants in pots or containers. It includes information on pots and containers, plants to choose for containers, and more.

Containers and Soil

Many people are confused about the size of containers that are needed for growing vegetables. I’ve put together more free resources here:

  • Types of Containers to Grow Vegetables
  • Soil for Container Gardens

Free Container Gardening Tips

This resource includes:

  • Charts that tell you the size of the container you need to grow many types of vegetables, including tomatoes, peppers, eggplant and more.
  • Information on how to measure recycled containers to estimate their size.
  • Soil and container size.
  • Container herb gardens.
  • More.

Download your free container gardening tips today.

Enjoy!

Recipe Fail – Coconut Bars

Each weekend, I dig out my favorite cookbook – the Fannie Farmer Cookbook, 13th Edition. I flip through the pages, skimming the recipes, checking to see if I have the ingredients to make those that catch my eye.

Propagating Peach Trees from Softwood Cuttings

We decided that propagating peach trees from softwood cuttings was the way to go when we couldn’t find the variety we wanted at the store this past week.
