  2. I munched my pepper plant in a container when I planted it. A month later the mulch has turned into a great bio-mass. So….do I add more soil & then more mulch on top of the existing mulch, or do I remove the top layer of "mulch" , add soil and put the original mulch back in?

  3. Here in central Washington, where I live, it gets hot and dry during the summer. I don't even remember when the last rain happened. It might have been last month. I know that last year when I grew my veggies and flowers, I grew in fabric pots and grew a lot of stuff in each pot. The plants helped to shade the potting mix that I used. I used a water meter and stuck the probe in the soil every day. If the plants needed water, I would water them. During the early part of the summer, I could get by with watering every 2 or 3 days. By July and August, I had to water every day.

  4. You seem to have missed my question on your last video about container gardening. I'll kindly post it again for you! "Hey do you have any of those onion tops you planted 5 months ago growing in those containers? We're looking forward to your update 3 of 5. After this long you should have an incredible crop of onions?" Thanks!
