Vegetable Container Gardening For Beginners and Garden Tour!

Some ideas for vegetable container gardening include using containers such as buckets, milk jugs, and water bottles, as well as repurposing old furniture or using laundry baskets as planters.

To plant tomatoes in containers, you can use any container that will hold soil, such as buckets or old buckets. Place your tomato plant in the container, making sure to remove the lower leaves and bury the stem deep into the soil. Water the plant and provide support with a stake if necessary.

It is recommended to plant one to two tomato plants per person in a small area.

One recommended method for watering plants in containers is to use a drip irrigation system. If that is not possible, you can use milk jugs with small holes in the bottom placed next to your plants. Fill them up halfway each day, and as the plants grow bigger, they will receive a slow drip of water.

It is best to plant vegetables in containers on a cloudy day, in the evening, or right before it rains. This helps reduce transplant shock and helps the plants get established more easily.
