I actually use container gardening on my deck in these super large pots that allow me to plant multiple different kinds of herbs and veggies together. It’s important though to make sure you follow companion planting rules: http://www.saferbrand.com/blog/buddy-companion-planting-vegetables/

Hi,
My son and I are trying our hand at container gardening. My son planted some pepper seeds in a pot in out south facing kichen window. It was last fall when he planted them and they are now producing peppers. One plant has flowered but no peppers have started to form. The other plant has 2 peppers growing. I am wondering, when you grow something out of season like this, and indoors, do you have to cross pollinate the flowers to get the vegies started? We bought some seeds for outdoor planting as well now that it is spring. We will be starting these indoors as it is still near freezing at night where we live. Any tips would be greatly appreciated, and I look forward to following your progress.

thanks

I will be planting a garden for the first time ever this year. I am really excited about growing our own organic food and reducing our carbon footprint. We have a deck and 2 balconies so we will join you in the container gardening experience 🙂
