Planting in potting soil bags

[NannyPatty]

I'm trying something new for me this year. I saw a link on you tube. I'm going to plant salad greens in potting soil bags on my deck. This will be so much easier than bending over in the garden if it works.

Arugula and mixed lettuce in both bags. Stay tuned....

Good idea. :swinging:

You will need some drainage holes in the bottom, or they will get waterlogged. That may stain your deck a little.

I put holes in the bottom of the bags and they're up a couple of inches to let the water drain out and run off. It's just not visible in the pictures.
