Lemon cucumbers are a big favorite & you can grow all sorts of greens & herbs. Have fun & keep trying new things.<br /><br />MattAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16765315164080479977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5579206506410193332.post-31018124627699811092011-04-12T16:48:46.044-07:002011-04-12T16:48:46.044-07:00I am starting my brand new container garden this w...I am starting my brand new container garden this weekend, totally from scratch and with ZERO experience. <br /><br />How many bell peppers can you get per plant? Do they only produce the peppers once a season?<br /><br />See, I basically know nothing.

I've been wondering when you'd whip one up and am SO glad to stumble upon this! It doesn't matter what your garden looks like, all that matters is that you're outside, enjoying your garden, getting your hands dirty, and loving life. Bravo for you!!!<br /><br />p.s. if you want to keep with the Redneck theme - have you thought of stacking a few tires in your front yard - they're great for growing potatoes!! I'll tell you more about this on Friday when we see you...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5579206506410193332.post-62235694977574934532009-11-14T16:25:12.702-08:002009-11-14T16:25:12.702-08:00Wow!

As an absolute novice, your comments are very appreciated.<br /><br />Chuck, I'm not normally a big-box guy, but the buckets were just too cheap to pass up.<br /><br />Fern, you are one of the people who inspired me to do the container garden in the first place. Thank you.<br /><br />Chris, you are an inspiration to any would-be urban farmers who think they don't have room. I am humbled by your remarks. I already have more ideas on the theme ;-)<br /><br />Katie, Thanks for the comment & the welcome. The depth of your passion amazes me. I hope I can continue to deliver content you enjoy.<br /><br />Thanks,<br />MattThe Dirt Guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07028447495904869068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5579206506410193332.post-25652137834629589662009-11-14T16:05:06.013-08:002009-11-14T16:05:06.013-08:00We have some actual gardeners in our neighborhood,...We have some actual gardeners in our neighborhood, and I don't care what their gardens look like because I know they're full of love and wonderful plants.
