    Pot sizes for growing vegetables in containers

    Thank you! My local agricultural ext agent told me I can do 3-4 peppers in each pot, similar to another poster here. I’m going to try it, curious to see how that will look though, has usually one large plant fills a single large cage for me. I’m having trouble picturing how 3 would have any room...

    Pot sizes for growing vegetables in containers

    Wow! Thank you. Do you use one cage for each plant, or a cage for all 3? May sound like a silly question. Maybe I’ll take a pic of the pots tonight to share with you all for reference.

    Thank you! I was wondering about growing multiple jalapeños, but I was unsure of whether or not they would have room to grow (width wise). I may just give it a shot.

    Pot sizes for growing vegetables in containers

    Hi all, This year I have set up a container garden on my back deck. It currently consists of 5 seven gallon fabric containers, and 5 twenty gallon fabric containers. I'm beginning to think that I might have overdone it on the 20 gallon containers and will just be wasting soil and space...

    Ducks - Over-wintering ducks hatched in the fall

    Based on my research I thought they only need 10mg per day. Maybe I’m confused

    Thanks! I also read that I can simply break open a b3 capsule and dissolve it into their water.

    Also, I picked up a few different things. Probiotics and electrolytes for their water. 24% protein starter crumbles and 20% grower crumbles once they’ve finished the starter crumbles. Am I doing the right thing for my ducklings?

    Thought I’d share the solution I came up with for keeping the ducklings from soiling the bedding every 5 seconds. I got a large hog pan from tractor supply along with 1/4x1/4 wire mesh and covered the pan with it. Placed two 2x4/ to support the pan, waterer goes ontop. No more soiled bedding!

    Ducks - Over-wintering ducks hatched in the fall

    Hello all, I have ordered 12 day-old ducklings from McMurray hatchery that will be arriving the week of November 11th. I have raised ducklings before, so I am prepared to care for them properly when they arrive. However, I have not raised them before at this time of year. So, I have some...

    Can i start onions in the spring?

    Thankyou both! How do I acquire onion plants? The ones i've used before are just bulbs about the size of a garlic clove. I don't believe i've ever seen actual plant starts.
