I just found these. I haven't heard of them before. I wish it wasn't already mid-April. I wonder if it's too late to get some...

How long have you had yours? How long do they last?

I think that is closer to what you meant.

Thanks!

Yes, I'm definitely lacking in table space. It's top of the list for next summer!

I've been using Big Bag Beds with great results. They are on their second season and have survived one flood.

I have a bunch of these:

I also have many 25 gallon containers.

I might do raised beds next year, however for now I want to stick to large containers.

Someone else mentioned it in your other post, but using your roof as a small garden would help take some of the heat load and provide you with some veggies if you're into that type of labor.

A few of these or something similar would probably suffice for the project.

Upvote for the Ozarks! My gf and I just got back from a camping trip on the Jacks Fork River in the Missouri Ozarks. We go down there multiple times every year for floats and fishing. Simply breathtaking.

I used smart pots last year. I learned it's hard (read: impossible) to over-water them if your soil drains well. It's great when we get too much rain but a chore when you have to remember daily supplemental watering during dry spells. I'm currently still using smart pot's big bag bed. It's pretty nifty if you want a raised bed that is removable.

I have two sugar pumpkin seedlings, about 5 inches apart, in a six-inch-deep mound. They're doing well and I'd like to keep them both, but do they need more space to make it work? They're in a Big Bag Bed filled with Black Gold organic potting mix. I have two cowpea plants and a zucchini plant in the same bed, all of which are doing well also. It seems like there's room to maneuver.

All of the above were grown from seed. I'm really, really new at this, so any tips/advice/snark will be appreciated.
