That is pretty cool. I've used the (35 gallon) kiddie pools for years. But you have to protect them from the sun or they don't last long at all.

Plug and play in last year's beds between spacing.Very minimal time ,planted 40 in about 15 minutes.

Everything looks good. That’s one bad ass garden. I don’t know how you find the time! Good work

Thanks,I try to save time.I have one load of composted manure delivered.I plant potatoes where I used the manure from previous.I only uncover beds every other year so only half gets work,the other gets planted in between last year's spacing .I do till and move the cold frame.But it's still only around 20 hours work per season start .And almost no weeding because of the fabric .I have taken down the bird netting on top of the fence as it traps everything that flys,so I will still have to put a top on my deer fence I'm thinking garden trellis .

No it’s definitely cool to see. I think I’m just gonna go with recycled 4x4s and deer fence with a make shift gate. I’m gonna do pepper plants by the three as you suggested in 20 gallon pots. I seen a cool technique where you grow tomatoes upside down in a bucket and cucumbers out the top I’m gonna try. I ordered a solar motion light to spook critters. My garden is real close to woods. I been catching the chipmunks and relocating them to the next town over lol. I didn’t realize I had so many until I put the bird feeders out. Think I got one left but he is smarter so far

This is what's left of last year's haul.Salsa,and tomatoes and pasta sauce and about 48 quarts of soup.Also corn,beans and squash and peppers still aplenty.Add in my fish and Game and I'm producing about half a years food every season.Ends up costing about 1.00 a quart for good food if you recycle jars .I get about 5 quarts per hour for my troubles.lol

Good Luck with yours.Depending where you are those container Tomatoes can suffer from heat and dry back.Consistent moisture levels make the best tomatoes,add epsom and potassium for closer internodes and sweeter fruit
