OMGoodness! All containers, pots and buckets!
You are a gardening guru!
I have been wanting to attempt to grow many vegetables in containers like this because I am limited on space for a 'true blue' garden plot.
I mean, I have peppers in a few pots and buckets, but cabbage? I am impressed. thank you for sharing!
Lol at the cabbage! Those were actually a mistake. Though I had gotten brussels sprouts, but being in a hurry had me mis-reading the tag. One suggestion if you do try them... one plant per bucket. These are severely over-crowded.
I'll bet you could get a good harvest from a small space. Folks have had good luck finding free or cheap buckets from ice cream shops and bakeries, so that might be a good start! Most important thing is to have fun!
Thanks!
Sometimes a little mistake can be a good thing, right?
I had read somewhere that cabbage would be best in a 5-gallon bucket.
I have a good word in with the bakery dept people at the local grocery store, and I live in the heart of apple country Michigan- tons of bakery, doughnuts and cider places here. I'll have to spread more of my good word and smiles lol
There ya go! I'll bet you get a few others trying their hand at it, too. It's a hard project to resist once they start thinking about the possibilities. With your smile thrown in, they'll be hooked in no time!
Free buckets are always good for planting!
I scrounge whatever buckets I can get for planting, but this year a lot of the buckets got used for other stuff.
