What’s the best container for growing vegetables?
When it comes to growing patio fruit and vegetables, any sunny deck, patio, backyard or balcony has the potential to produce a tasty crop – even a window box. The size of your outside space really doesn’t matter, but choosing the right containers for your fruit and veg is a must if all the different varieties are to have the correct environment to thrive.
When growing fruit and veg in containers, there are two main things to consider:
The container must be large enough to sustain the plant. Typically, we suggest your containers should measure at least 23-25 cm (9-10″) in diameter. If you’re growing vegetables like leeks, potatoes, or any other root crops, you’ll need a deeper container. Salads and herbs will be fine in a shallower pot.
There must be adequate drainage at the bottom of your containers. Waterlogged roots will rot and your plants will die.
Your pots can be ornamental or minimalist in design and made of any material that you wish, but do bear in mind the prevailing growing conditions. If you live in a drier climate or your patio doesn’t get much rain on it, plastic pots hold moisture better than terracotta. If your outside space is especially damp, terracotta pots will drain better and allow the soil to ‘breathe’, making them a better option.
These media pots and trays are perfect for starting my vegetable garden. Highly recommend for beginners!
