FAQ
What is the most important thing to do before you start a new garden?

Which seeds should I start indoors and which ones should I avoid?
The best seed for starting indoors is a tomato seed. Tomatoes grow quickly and bear good fruit all year. It is important to be careful when planting tomatoes in containers.

What is a planting plan?
A planting calendar is a list of plants that should be planted at different times throughout the year. The goal of a planting calendar is to maximize plant growth and minimize stress.

Fall crops include carrots and cabbage, broccoli, cauliflowers, kale, potatoes, and others.
Can I grow fruit trees in pots?
