hello again

Hey all!  We (my mother-in-law and I) have a book on growing bags.  When
we decided to do a garden and went to Hastings to look at books on
gardening we came across the grow bag method and Mel's book.  At the time
we just bought Mel's book because you can't do everything in a grow bag.
We read the section on grow bags at Hastings and came home and decided to
experiment with one grow bag with two patio tomatoes in it.  They are
doing beautifully!  To date, they are the only ones with baby tomatoes on
them though our square footers aren't far behind and full of blooms.  We
went back and got the book and now have a grow bag with 3 eggplants.  It
really is simple and we plan to dump the soil into our compost pile at
the end of the season.  I didn't know you could do lettuce that way, but
will try it in the fall since it's too hot here now.  The grow bags have
less problem with pests than our square foot garden as the bag keeps all
of the ground pests away (at least so far).  Give it a try!  We love it!
