Creating a container garden is quite simple. あなた can grow most varieties of herbs and vegetables in pots または other containers. Some types will be too large for container gardening, but あなた can often find dwarf varieties of your favorites.

あなた will need to choose a container that has holes in the bottom for drainage. To find the right size, look up the approximate depth of the roots of the plant あなた wish to grow, and get a container that is 4-6 inches deeper than that.

Use a good quality potting soil または organic compost as your potting material. あなた can place some large gravel または broken pottery pieces in the bottom to help prevent soil from spilling out the bottom and aid in drainage.
