Hi everybody! To my astonishment, when I came back to S. CA a few months ago, I had a huge Garden of organic Superfood Greens growing like crazy in pots along the brick wall. My boyfriend had told me things were growing but I didn’t believe him until I saw it. Wow!
I have Kale, Collards, Beets, Swiss Chard, Dandelions, Amaranth, magenta Lamb’s Quarter, Nasturtium growing and more. I also bought several bunches of living Watercress, planted them, and now they’re thriving too!
A lot of these greens grew up by accident, in soil I had tried to grow Microgreens in last summer. Yay!! An accidental garden! I never knew it was possible to grow SO many greens and veggies in pots.
I’ve been making ALL my Green Smoothies exclusively from what I’m growing, plus some yummy edible weeds like Chickweed, Sow Thistle, Goosefoot, Wood Sorrel, and Nettle. These are some of the healthiest and most nutrient dense green smoothies I’ve ever had!
I’ve found it really EASY to grow almost all my organic greens in pots, without having a yard with a Garden! Even my Beets are growing really well in their pots. I’ll try Carrots next 🙂
All I do is water every 2-3 days and fertilize every few weeks. I’ve using coffee grounds and worm castings. I do need to start spraying an organic pest deterrant since some of the Kale is getting munched.
It’s simple and hardly any work! You too can grow TONS of greens & veggies in pots…never buy Kale again! And know that ALL the Greens & Veggies you eat are truly Organic!
