[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]op here- yes, I am thinking about a container garden. I just got my own townhouse...I have a small backyard, I already planted a bunch of flowers in the small space I had. Further, I was concerned that if I planted organic vegetables in the gorund it might not make sense because there might already be a bunch of chemicals like fertilizer/pesticides in the dirt and then it wouldn't be very healthy to be eating food grown from there... so I thought a container with orgranic soil might be the better way to guarantee an organic vegetable garden...[/quote] How old is your townhouse? Fertilizer/pesticides in the soil is really not an issue, except under some truly exceptional circumstances. The main thing to worry about would be lead, but only if your townhouse was built before 1980. And in my experience, most vegetables do better in the ground than in containers.[/quote]
