My garden is doing great!

4. growing in pots is underrated

I learned a cool tip from NRaleighLiberal, which I will repeat here. You can put tomatoes and eggplant (peppers, too) in those plain 'ole blacks pots that come from the nursery and given some compost, they will do very well. The roots love that warmth that's absorbed into the driveway.

Now this being NJ, we are known for our asphalt, even though our slogan is "The Garden State." I have a large area of asphalt and have been happily growing peppers, eggplants, and tomatoes under these circumstances, even though I have 14 raised beds in another part of my property

So congrats on your garden, Aerows! Let us know how the lettuce is doing.
