I think the problem the first year was that I used regular garden soil so the second attempt was with potting soil. Still not much success. Some of the jugs were too wet and some were too dry though they were all prepared and kept the same way and in the same place. I think another problem this year was that the wind upset a few of my jugs. And this season was wonkey any way you cut it. How do you guys do drainage and how do you water?
I got a few squash plants to grow, a few beans, a few broccoli, a few peas and a few cukes. No okra, tomatoes or peppers. I only do veggies.
Any ideas?
This was not their permanent spot. I hemmed them up next to the SFG bed with some bricks to keep the wind from blowing them over anymore.
