|
Hello veggies! I've been living mostly in flats and apartments recently so I don't have much of my own land to be gardening on. But I'm trying to doing what I can, having been inspired by basic ideas about balcony gardens, I've started growing strawberries and some yummy mini wild strawberries in some hanging pots around the place.
So I was wondering if anyone else has found themselves in my land-scant position or if you could suggest any veggies that would do OK. The pots I have now get good late-afternoon to evening sun.
Thanks in advance!

I think you can plant most veggies in containers even hanging baskets. You just have to watch your water. Also if you have a vine...watermelon, cucumber, ect. support the fruit so it doesn't pull to hard on the vine and break it.
