I was impressed because I am also helping parents of children with disabilities to establish container garden some of the information you have kindly share here will be implemented. Also most of them they don’t have enough land and water this is going to be helpful it saves water and space.
Regards
Winnie

I’m currently setting up a kitchen garden here in Belize, some of the info you’ve kindly shared here will be considered/implemented.

Best regards,

Paul

I use a wheelchair for many things these days so container gardening is easier for me. You have given me some great ideas for getting into permaculture more. Love the more natural way of growing. I also am learning about the wildlife and wild flora around me for eating and supporting the eco system. I’ll be checking out your other blogs to see what I can learn too. thanks again.

The pots managed to get loads of potential functions and yields. I suspect that growing plants that need restricted root runs (figs), or are not fully hardy and need protection in Winter, would be a good way ahead. Using a planting pot that root prunes (air pots) would be great if the plants need to be planted out later. I agree with your comment about succession, and in the comment mentioned that this solution could be tweaked easily by others. A pattern for others to use, and put in their own detail.

I think this kind of thinking also provides others small and slow solutions and is also a form of ‘sucession’ from small plantings to larger well placed ones.
