My container garden

Heres my garden would appreciate any tips to have a more successful garden next year.











Heirloom sweet basil

 

Heirloom strawberries





Heirloom carrots





Heirloom sunflower, tomato, and another basil plant. Got a question for ya guys, anyone know if my sunflowers are going to flower or not?

 

My pride and joy is the 2-3 year old norfolk island pine that i've nursed back from the brink of death 4 times now too.

 

You've got more than one tree there... Norfolk Island Pine has a single trunk.

 

well i guess i should probably trim the other ones to encourage growth then i take it?

 

no

separate them very carefully and give them each their own container

(unless they are those annoying ones that are growing from the original).



disclaimer im not a tree expert

 

^^^ That....


Not the disclaimer though.

 

Alright thanks I'll do that in a couple months since i just put it in a bigger pot and i remember reading they don't like to be moved around or it'll kill, right?

 

Yeah, you don't want to disturb a potted tree any more than is necessary.

 

anyone know what i can do to get my strawberries to produce fruit other than wait until next year?

 

you could play backstreet boys songs for them and take them to the gay pride march

 

I've run into a slight problem with my carrots, the container keeps getting green mold growing on the side. I thought i was being careful not to over water and had drainage holes in the bottom of my containers. Could my problem be that the containers were too small?

 

The sunflowers have really taken off in the past week and the basil and onions have also been doing really well too. I just wish the carrots and tomatoes would have done as well.
