I like your philosophy, UncleDuke. And I'll see your "two pots on the deck" and raise you five pots on a balcony. I usually don't have to worry about weeds, but I've learned not to keep plant that are attractive to nesting wrens, such as large Boston ferns pots. These days I stick with


Curly, don't forget to prepare for the output of your garden. Do you plan to keep your plot small or try to grow enough for canning and freezing? I spent most of my childhood summers (and winters because Dad never did anything small) in the garden or in the kitchen helping blanch, chop, and package veggies. Oh, the hours I spent shelling butterbeans or cutting corn off the cob. It's a good deal of work, but worth it. Fresh, lightly blanched sweet corn....best thing EVER!
