Place the container in its final location before filling it. Choose a pot that has drainage holes, is stable, and is large enough for root development; a simple solid cache-pot does not allow for water drainage. Use potting mix rather than dense garden soil. Moisten the substrate before sowing or planting, without saturating it. Leave a space at the rim to facilitate watering and maintain distance between the plants. Check moisture levels regularly with your finger, as the surface may dry out while the bottom remains damp. Water slowly until water drains out through the holes, then empty the saucer. During hot weather, check the pots more frequently. Fertilize according to the needs of the crop and the instructions of the chosen product. Roots have a limited volume: therefore, container gardening requires different monitoring than planting in the ground. Position any necessary supports during installation. Maintain easy access to inspect the leaves, remove damaged parts, and harvest without pulling on the stems. At the end of the cycle, remove debris and clean the equipment before reuse.

Garden associations

In goodcompany.

Companion plants

Organize neighboring crops according to their light requirements, height, and space occupied at maturity. Prevent tall plants from permanently shading smaller ones or blocking access for watering. Successive crops can use the same space if the first is harvested before the next one expands. Flowers diversify the garden, but companion planting does not guarantee the absence of pests. Keep enough air between plants and observe the interactions on-site. Use companion planting as an organizational tool, without attributing automatic protection against diseases to it.
