That's it, I'm stopping now!
69 assorted containers with veg growing in them....and a veg plot...and a fruit border. Her indoors is fed up of hearing about what's growing so I thought I'd share some container ideas with you all.
pic 1 shows early potatoes in a plastic wheelbarrow. These will be followed by self-blanching celery which is growing away nicely in 4 inch pots.
pic 2 has some peas in an old toy box. Some of the pods are starting to swell now and when they've done I'll sow CCA lettuce in the box.
pic 3 strawberries in an old tyre. Plenty of green fruit so all I need now is some sunshine.
If you want to grow in containers don't limit yourself to shop-bought planters. Wooden boxes, plastic bags...as long as put drain holes in it you can use any container.
We're soon to have a new bathroom suite fitted but OH is refusing point blank to let me have the old bath to fill with veggies
