Easy Container Gardening A plan for fresh vegetables even with limited space. Our plan includes tomatoes, basil, and parsley, but other possibilities are also given. Tomatoes and basil grown together enhance each other's flavor, and with this mix you'll have most of the ingredients for pesto. What you need: Large containers Good dirt Tomato plants Stakes/sticks or cages to support tomatoes Basil plants Italian flat-leaf or curly parsley Flowers (if desired) Fertilizer Other desired plants and containers 1. Buy tomato plants and dirt from a nursery , so you'll know the plants are strong. The staff at the garden store will also be able to help you select a nutrient-rich soil or growing medium and a fertilizer. Since you'll be growing in containers, the plants are dependent on the soil and the nutrients you provide for nourishment. 2. Choose your containers . Your containers will need drainage; terracotta, stone, or plastic containers will all work nicely. If you choose the 20-inch pots, you'll have room to plant things together. Self-watering pots are a good option, too. If you plan to put them away after growing season, you may want to buy containers that can be stacked for storage. 3. For drainage

Exclusives Container Gardening Of America's 60 million gardeners, probably 90% of them grow plants in containers. It may be just a pot of geraniums, or a few window boxes, but it may also be a deck filled with tubs of tomatoes, peppers, and lettuce, or a rooftop garden packed with potted citrus, bougainvillaea, and herbs. Growing in containers is a necessity for people without a yard. It's also a smart alternative if you are restricted by too much shade, poor soil, too little time, limited mobility, or a difficult climate. Container gardens can be much more productive than a regular garden. They also allow you to avoid most pest and disease problems. Best of all, growing in containers brings your garden right up close, creating a sense of intimacy that you just don't get in an ordinary backyard garden. Types of Containers Almost anything can serve as a container for growing plants: In addition to terra-cotta, plastic, or pressed fiber pots, you can use recycled whiskey barrels, 5 gallon food buckets, laundry baskets, bushel baskets, plastic tubs, wooden planter boxes, even old tires! The new self-watering planters, with a built-in water reservoir, are another great choice. The container should be determined by the root space required from the type of plants you plan to grow. Radishes may get by in a 6" deep container, but don't try to grow a tomato plant in a container that holds less than 5 gallons of soil. With experience, you'll get to know the root structure for different kinds of plants and will be able to match the right pots to the right plants. The general rule is to use the largest container possible, because the more soil there is, the longer your plants can go between waterings (see our chart on Optimum Container Volume and Depth below.)

Dig in on a smaller scale. BY MERLE HENKENIUS document.write(""); Next If you love flowers, fresh vegetables and culinary herbs, but lack the space, the tools or the energy for a conventional garden, then think small, portable, manageable–think container gardening. While no one expects to sustain a growing family on these micro-Edens, containers can supplement a good many meals with fresh herbs and produce, while making your deck or patio more inviting. Unless you really need or want the bounty of a conventional garden, container gardening has much to recommend it. At the top of list is the fact that you don't need a garden space. Any patio, deck, nook or cranny will do, provided it gets enough sun. Secondly, because potting soil contains few weed seeds, much of the stooping-over work associated with conventional gardens is eliminated. The few weeds that do appear are easy to reach in elevated pots and easy to pluck from fluffy soil. Commercial soils are also largely free of soil-borne plant diseases. And finally, container gardens are portable. They can be repositioned to accommodate seasonal changes, and if you need to move in July, you can always take your garden with you.

More Information Container Gardening If you lack space for a garden, consider raising vegetables in containers. You can grow any vegetable in a container with enough preparation and care. Start by finding a container large enough to support fully grown plants and with adequate soil-holding capacity to accommodate the plant's root system. The container must have drainage holes. You can grow vegetables in almost anything, including barrels, flower pots, milk jugs, bleach bottles, window boxes, baskets, tile pipes and cinder blocks. For most plants, containers should be at least 6 inches deep A fairly lightweight potting soil is the best growing medium for container plants. Garden soil is too heavy for container growing. Most commercially sold potting mixes are too lightweight for garden plants because they don't offer adequate support for plant roots. If you buy a potting mix, add soil or compost to provide bulk and weight. Or mix your own with equal parts peat moss or well-rotted compost; loamy garden soil; and clean, coarse builder's sand. Add a slow-acting, balanced fertilizer (slow-release synthetic or organic fertilizers work best) according to container size. Add lime to bring the mixture's pH to around 6.5.

NO PROBLEM Enhance your patio, garden, or apartment with these great ideas If you have little or no space for a traditional garden, then container gardening is your best bet. Container gardens can also be a charming way to embellish your patio, entryway or deck. Although container gardens generally require more watering and feeding, they are quite easy to maintain and care for. Container gardens are also a great solution if you are considering an herb garden (link to herb gardening article) as they can be placed conveniently near the kitchen door or in a kitchen window box. Choosing your Container: Containers are not limited to terra cotta pots and formal urns. Use your imagination! Pick a style that suits the surroundings, but that also suits the plant or plants you wish to grow in it. Consider the style and color palette you are working with. Cobalt blue containers may be a great way to tone down hot color plants, but they may not suit a mediterranean-style garden (terra cotta would be more appropriate). With the increasing range of colors and styles of containers available today, sizable, stylish (and affordable!) containers are easy to find, so make the containers part of the grand scheme instead of just a place to plant.

Miracle-Gro Nursery Select There’s always room for a container in any style or size of garden by Beckie Fox Nothing brightens a garden corner or says welcome to visitors morE THAN a beautiful container brimming with cheerful, colorful flowering annuals and vines. The key to successful container gardening is to start with an artful combination of plants and keep them healthy and vigorous throughout the season. Here are tips on how to accomplish both. Potted plants add focal points and the pathway down the center makes it easy to maintain the plot. Staking vine crops like tomatoes and beans makes good use of vertical space. Supports also make harvesting much easier and help keep vegetables in good shape. For best results, harvest vegetables just before you are going to eat them. If possible, pick ripe vegetables on a sunny, dry day. Avoid harvesting when plants are wet from dew or recent rain. Dampness makes them vulnerable to infection. First, choose a large container with drainage holes. The larger the pot, the more room you’ll have for a variety of plant colors and textures. Large containers also need watering less frequently. Drainage holes allow excess water to drain away. Instead of covering the holes with gravel or pot shards, which hinder drainage, place a small square of window screening or landscape fabric over the holes before adding soil.

75. Container Gardening If you have a small area or don t have the capacity to grow a large garden, consider container gardening. Try a variety of plants in one container garden. http://hort.ifas.ufl.edu/ggk/container.htm

If you have a small area or don't have the capacity to grow a large garden, consider container gardening. Gardening in containers can be just as rewarding as having a full size garden. Many plants grow in pots just as well as they do in the ground. There are a few things to consider when planning for a container garden if you wish to be successful. The first is to consider the plants. If you are planting more than one plant in the same pot, which many do for an attractive interesting container garden, be sure that all your plants meet the same requirements. Requirements to consider are amount of light, amount of water and fertilizer scheduling. Also be sure that the size of the container matches the size of your plant. Some other things you might consider when planning your container garden are such things as height, color, and texture. Variations of these elements will make you container gardens more attractive and very interesting to look at. When watering your container gardens, the best time to do so is in the morning. Watering in the morning allows your leaves and soil to dry out, preventing diseases and viruses. You should water your plant accordingly. You should check to see if your plants need watering before adding more. Overwatering is the most common reason for container plants dying. If you push your finger into the soil, this should give you an idea of how moist or dry the soil is. Do not watering the plant if the soil is already moist.
