Container vegetable gardening
Short Description
Almost any type of container can be used if it provides good drainage through holes in the bottom or around the sides near the bottom. If adding holes, drill four or more 1/4-inch holes evenly spaced around the container bottom. To further help drainage, put about 1/2-inch of coarse gravel, small stones, or pieces of a broken clay pot in the bottom. These items are not a substitute for drainage holes.

Container and Raised Bed Gardening
Short Description
Gardening in containers or raised beds can be just the answer for would-be gardeners who would love to grow their own vegetables and flowers, but lack the space or physical ability for a traditional garden. Growing plants in containers provides an opportunity to garden on patios, porches, balconies, and even windowsills. Raised beds can be used to overcome poor-soil conditions and bring the garden to a height that is more easily reached. While container gardens can be very productive, they do require some special attention.
