Enjoyed this latest podcast. Great job as always! Thumbs up

The term "Pot Ghetto" sure made me laugh out loud! At our old house my pot ghetto was behind a big shed in the backyard; our current property is much smaller so it's a bit difficult finding places to put pots ... so now my pot ghetto is behind shrubbery along the side of the house. I've hidden so many plants beneath other plants that I'm surprised when I stumble upon something I forgot that I had and pleasantly surprised when it looks even better than when I first placed it there! Green Grin! I think most gardeners have a pot ghetto somewhere on their property.

I just purchased the badge "Gardens in Buckets" because I tend to do that when I'm short of empty pots and don't have the time to go out and buy them. We always have empty buckets in the garage from stuff my husband buys on-line for the aquarium and when we had cats I used to use the plastic litter buckets; I just get out the drill and put a few large drainage holes in the bottom of the bucket, and add potting medium.

I think we really do need a "Pot Ghetto" badge too!
