Now that we are in Houston, I wanted a garden. I looked on Pintrest for some ideas for Container Gardening and decided that is what I want to do. There was one picture from a chef who was using long livestock tanks and I loved that. Here is the link for it. http://www.southernliving.com/home-garden/gardens/souths-best-gardens/edible-container-garden. The livestock tanks for the 6'x2'x2' are about $240. There were some smaller ones but they were still about $150.00. Charles found some small round tanks for $20 each and that is what I decided to go with.
This is a new yard for me so I needed to do some research about the sun and the best place for the garden with the most sun. This was morning sun.. before 11:00 am.
The final decision was to put it at the side of the house because it actually gets the longest full sun exposure. I did discover that we needed to move the containers down twards the edge of the house.
What I finally did to keep the pictures organized is to email them to myself each time I went out to take more pictures with the time of day in the subject line. This works GREAT......
