Urban Gardening Continued...

With the City of New York fully immersed in warm spring weather, I thought it proper to shift our attention to my "other" garden. The little urban container garden that I started last winter. I took the 2 herb pots and planted them with potatoes and chives. I also acquired several additional pots and a planter box from various sources. I filled in these containers with roughly 1/4 compost(from my worm compost bin) and 3/4 gardening soil. In totality, I have planted pole beans, potatoes, chives, red onions, and snap peas in in 6 containers on my fire-escape. I also moved my worm compost bin outside now that the night-time temperature is warm enough for the little creatures.
