Re: Soil for Container Gardening.

howdy f. drew!

you want to have a good combination of growing mediums.  a little peat,
a little humus , a little old-fashioned topsoil, and some wel composted
manure should do the trick.

if you're going to grow legumes(peas &  beans) you'll want to get some
innoculant.  just follow the directions on the package.  make some green
manure( veggie kitchen scraps & a little water blended as fine as
possible) and give your young plantsa nice side dressing.

sincerely,

Good Morning:

I am ready to get my containers ready to grow vegetables but I do not know
any thing about soil. What can I use for soil?
