Think you dont have good soil for a garden.....THINK AGAIN


Its time to get our brains rolling for gardening. But I can just hear you I dont have good soil, I dont have enough room...BLAH BLAH BLAH.....

DIRECTIONS:
Go to your local Gardening Center

Depending on your space purchase as many bags of soil as you think you may need

puncture holes in one side for drainage

the other side slit the top open to plant your plants

Have fun and plant whatever you want.

This method is really AWESOME for people who live in an area where the soil is really bad! HAVE FUN and HAPPY GARDENING!!!!!!!

This reminds me of a friend of mine who works with women in Congo where all the soil has been destroyed due to a volcanic explosion. The women there grow their food in bags of dirt just as you describe.

How wonderful! Thank you for your comment! I have done this and a girlfriend of mine who has clay for soil she gardens this way!
