Do you want to grow some vegetables but just don’t have a lot of space? Try container gardening. You can grow everything from tomatoes to salad mixes in pots of all shapes and sizes.
Trust me, anyone can have a garden and you don’t have to have a giant backyard to do it. If you have never gardened before, start with something easy, like salad greens.
How to Grow Salad in a Pot
Supplies
- Container
- Potting Soil {my favorite potting soil recipe}
- Lettuce Seeds
Directions
Fill a container with moist potting soil. Press seeds into soil and cover with 1/4 inch potting soil. Keep moist. Seeds should germinate in 5-10 days and depending on the variety and your lettuce should be ready to harvest in 30 – 45 days.
You can do this!
