I’m a bit annoyed that I didn’t get bigger pots. The round carrots require less depth but are wider, so after thinning I’ll probably only get a couple. I really hate thinning.

But the pots have to be small and portable. I need to bring them in easily when needed and even raised beds would be a bit much. I’m trying to keep this low pressure and manageable

Almost anything can be a pot. Empty yoghurt container, old crockery, cut off milk carton. Just need some drainage holes and bam, it’s now a pot.

Good call. I might need to get more potting mix though
