Container Gardening with Vegetables

Last Updated on July 19, 2021 by Melody Reyes

If you want to grow your food, then container gardening is an easy way to start. You can grow vegetables on your balcony, patio, or garden with the help of pots. If you don’t know what kinds of pots are most suitable and what environment is best for your vegetables, keep reading.

• When it comes to containers, clay pots may be attractive, but plastic pots retain more moisture and won’t dry out as fast. You may also use hanging pots for herbs, cherry tomatoes, and strawberries to save space.
• Avoid using soil from the garden since it is too heavy and may bring diseases along with it. Instead, use a soilless mix or compost.
• Feed your vegetables weekly with organic soil amendments, such as liquid seaweed, fish emulsion, or manure tea to keep them growing.
