Do This NOW To Turbocharge Your Container Garden!

View ChannelAbout
This channel is dedicated to my love of gardening. I live in southeastern, coastal North Carolina, just southwest of Wilmington in humid subtropical Zone 8b, latitude 34°10'39" N (34.17N). Growing up in south Jersey, my father and grandfather both had gardens. As a child, I used to help them plant seedlings and pick vegetables. As a teen, I worked on a local farm. After college, I lived in Philadelphia, so I had to garden out of buckets. My love for all things outdoors has taken me to the south where land is more plentiful, growing seasons are long and winters mild, but with a few deep freezes in the mid-to-low teens annually that make my hardiness zone a real challenge. I am a zone pusher. In this channel, I will grow a lot of the common edible annuals we all know and love, but I will also grow many things that "you can't grow" in Zone 8b. I am young and have a long journey ahead of me with a lot more to learn, and I invite you along for the ride with me. Awin

Video Description
In this video, I share everything you need to do to grow an incredible container garden! Growing a container garden successfully is a game of resource management, because container gardens are limited to what you provide them. They cannot survive without us, so we must treat them right. These 5 steps are things you should do now to turbocharge your container garden for the best gardening season ever! Remember, growing plants in containers is not a natural process. We need to grow container gardens differently than we would grow a garden in soil. I treat my container garden very different than my raised bed garden. When you understand the mindset behind gardening in containers, it makes it a lot easier to achieve fantastic success!
