Thank you. We live in the desert of western Colorado.....hot and dry. 62 years ago, my mother in law gave me a cutting of her favorite mint plant....we lived in New England at the time. I had it there and then moved it when we moved west. It is flourishing in a large container where it only gets about 2-3 hours or sun per day. It is wonderful for mint tea and makes a wonderful mint jelly....
I started my garden in containers and grow bags. I live in zone 9b SW Florida, but in 2023, I decided to grow my vegetable garden in raised beds. It's been a game changer for me. It's been a lot less work, less time watering, less time amending the soil. I can do more companion planting. I had little to no bugs last year. Overall, I thought I liked container gardening, but I love raised bed square foot companion gardening better.
Believe it or not I am growing corn in a 20 lbs grow bag. I put about six plants in each bag. So far the corn is three feet tall. Dark green and lots of broad leaves. I can’t wait until harvest. I want to see if I was successful.
Hello from OKC. First year starting me my Garden/Containers project...woohoo. Canning and Prepping as well . Wow excited can't wait til winter to look back and see what if anything I accomplished. 😊 All with the help of My Lord, of course...Take Care Blessings 🙏
This is perfect! My husband and I are renters and we also live in the desert where the ground is hard as a rock so it's nice to have an alternative means to garden. Also, your cauliflower is beautiful!
I enjoyed this video because I have a balcony garden so everything I grow is in containers. Like you said you can control those evasive plants so much easier in containers.
Amazing amount of ideas in such a compact video! So many of your favorites are space saving which is super helpful. I look forward to moving some of the veggies to containers next time around. I have my saffron bulbs planted in a container to allow for portability as the summer heats up. Thank you, have a wonderful Thanksgiving
Going save this video so I can try at least two start off with see how it goes & how I do. 👌🏾❤ this! Inspiration to expand & explore my newly green thumb 🙂
Thanks for this video. I have been growing my produce in containers firstly because of space and sscondly because of sun exposure. Have grown tomatoes, eggplant, cucumber, string beans, cauliflower, pepper, corn, greens and root crops and so far I have been successful. I tried squash one year but somehow, I call it a loss. At any rate, I will continue growing my produce in containers.
@@rennietintin8701 I grow sweet corn last Year, in containers. And I got a decent harvest . One thing I have learned with growing corn is that they need a lot of space. So all you need is about 3-4 plants in a container. Have fun!
I grew Zucchini Summer Squash well in a 20" plastic pot that has a hole for drainage. I purchased this at one of the big box home improvement stores for under $20.00 each, two seasons ago. I also have had success with Imperial Artichokes (one per pot same kind of pot)
I had my fig tree outside in NY people were surprised to see it thriving full of figs i used to add kitchen scraps around it make a whole drop them in cover, i also used lots of mulch all around it.
Thank you! I'm trying to improve my hobbies and gardening is something that I've always wanted to do. This is a great start and I'm in the south so I think our climate is similar!
I love containers! I live in a very dry desert also. From Utah just above you. I love to layer my containers like a mini hugelkulture pot. And then plant in the top compost layer. Then mulch the top with wood chips. Containers in the desert sure do dry out fast. But having them layered with organic materials keep a lot more moisture. I love learning from you. Great information and beautiful videos and pictures as always! Great job!
Thank you for this wonderful video; I’m so glad the RUclips algorithm suggested it to me. I’m new to gardening and your information is extremely helpful.
Cabbages, sweet potato and mint would be my favorite things to grow in containers. I tried zucchini in container last season and it wasn’t doing well until I transplanted it in one of my raised beds.
This is my first try with lettuce and spinach in a window box. I also started Dill, Marjoram, and Basil in an undivided, three branched, stackable pot. Call my flub ups and wish me luck.
Yes I'm a new gardener I started last year and I started using containers this year I'm doing raised beds and vertical gardening thank you so much for this post 💪💪💜💜 eggplant is my favorite container veggie I'm growing white egg plants
I’m going to put more vegetables in containers. This past year I experimented in both ground and containers and my results were amazing in our Texas heat.
Up here in zones 3 & 4 I've been overwintering my herbs inside for years - oregano, rosemary, sage, parsley, chive... They need enough light - good, large, south facing windows. Or be willing to install grow lights. I prune the roots to keep pot size manageable. My Geraniums have been with me many years. They'll drop leaves and get all leggy but pruning them back in the spring does the trick. I only wish I could do fruit and vegetables, containers or not. Just never make it to harvest - they're a buffet for local wildlife.
Thanks for this very helpful video. It's concise, yet loaded. I'm new to gardening, just this year trying out a few things. Your great video gave me plenty of ideas to try out next Spring. Cheers!
Oh my goodness... You've got the most beautiful gardens.. Thank you so much for all the advice and encouragement. I'm a desert city dweller and containers are a lifesaver as far as watering goes. If I might ask, do people have success with grow bags ? 💜🌱💜
Even these container are too deep. What I do is to measure the adult plant root or google it and that is the depth I need. Less water, less soil, less space, less weight,, less "products for mend to soil. For instance herbs like oregano, thyme, etc. or even tomatoes, peppers, broccoli, collar greens, most of the "produce" we buy at the supermarket we can plant them in a very cheap way. Ay container can be used for something... they don't need a lot of soil because roots are no deep
I like to see if you have any videos on growing sweet potatoes in a container. Regarding the general care, pests, and whatever else I may need to know. I have two large sweet potatoes that started growing slips while stored in my kitchen. They've grown so large from us not cooking the sweet potatoes that I decided I want to go ahead and use them to grow my own. Right now I have the potatoes in water (not fully submerged of course) to see if I can get some roots growing from the slips. And I'm thinking about my next step going to the hardware store to find a big tub container to plant them in. But considering it's Texas fall I guess I may just plant both of the potatoes inside of a large pot in my home until I can plant the slips next season outside in a tub.
gardening RUclips is so wholesome , I have found my people
Ilove❤❤❤❤❤❤❤the way you make your video

Thanks for the inspiration!
Btw bangs look cute on you!
I have a small space so I grow peppers, basil, nasturtium, dill, with my cherry tomatoes in a large 23-24 in Terra Cotta container

If you can do raised beds then that is an easier option, glad it's worked well for you!
Cucumbers grow really good in pails. I grew over 150 plants last year 5 seeds per pail
Repeatedly saying "in a container" wasn't very specific. A suggested size range for each would have been helpful. Thank you for the list.
Here's a blogpost that may be helpful: growinginthegarden.com/guide-to-container-sizes-which-size-container-should-i-use/
@@GrowingInTheGarden this was indeed helpful, thanks 👍🏽
The pictures weren’t enough
Absolutely LOVED the speed of this video. Jam packed with info. Thank you!!
I grew two varieties of eggplant in Dollar Tree mop buckets in cow manure and compost last year.

Potatoes in tubs are a winner 🏆
Agreed!
I enjoyed this video because I have a balcony garden so everything I grow is in containers. Like you said you can control those evasive plants so much easier in containers.
I've been planting in 5 gallon buckets and grow bags for a few yrs now.loved this video!!!!
The best thing about container gardening is you can move them around the yard, optimizing growth using the weather.
The best gardening info on you tube yet👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻thank you so much🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️
Thank you! I live in a small apartment and really want to grow produce on our patio ☺️
I like to plant ground cherries in containers. They do really well and I can control gathering the fruit better.
Great idea, I may try that next spring. Thanks
Love to PLANT EVERYTHING IN NICE FLOWER 🌸 POTS. THANKS 🙏 SO MUCH. CANT WAIT TO SEE WHAT ELSE YOU HAVE FOR US.
Love this thank you! Currently looking at growing in my balcony so this is amazing 🤩

Asparagus is great in a container. I used to lose my asparagus in the garden. In a container it’s much easier to find!
Great tip!

Yep, just about!

basil does well in containers
The only thing I grow in containers are blueberries, easy to keep soil acid and moist, although I have also grown sweet potatoes in containers.
I pinch back tomatoes to force a limited number of larger fruits
This is so helpful..thanks..

But considering it's Texas fall I guess I may just plant both of the potatoes inside of a large pot in my home until I can plant the slips next season outside in a tub.
