[quote=Anonymous]I am creating a container garden. The expense of creating beds is just too much. I already have several large pots and soil. 2 years ago the animals attacked. So last year I bought fence posts and bird netting. And they tore apart the netting. Onto this year. Just some basics - tomatoes, zucchini, basil... 1- What can is use instead of netting? Chicken wire? How tall? We have deer. Is 4' enough? 2- How do I prepare the pots to be reused? Top off with some fresh soil and fertilizer? 3 - I haven't started seeds yet, or I can just buy plants at Lowes. I want easy and convenient. What are my timelines for planting? Do I have to start indoors or can I just start right outside? 4- last year something destroyed my zucchini, maybe a vine borer. Anything I can do to prevent pests? I really really want to love gardening but something always goes wrong. It's not fun for me searching for bug eggs or whatever. [/quote]
