About the Event

'Pots, Problems & Plants', Common Container Gardening Challenges.

Growing edibles in containers can expand your gardening area and help solve problems like contaminated soil or too little sunlight.  But growing plants in pots is not the same as growing in garden beds and the differences can present some challenges. The talk will discuss potential problems and how to solve them. You’ll learn how to be successful when growing edibles of all kinds in pots. If you’ve had trouble growing tomatoes in containers, be sure to attend to hear some tips on how to get the best results when growing tomatoes  in containers.

Presented by Terry Lippert
