Dresser Planter update


Well, there it is in all its glory. Turned out pretty good if I do say so myself, and I do.

We planted strawberries in the bottom 2 drawers and basil, rosemary and sweet fennel in the top. They have been in for a few days now and seem to be going strong so I am hopeful we will have some for use this summer.

The plants are supposedly organic so that helps considering our goal is to have chemical free veggies from this.

All we did was get some cheap potting soil as well as 3 kinds of compost to mix together. The compost was chicken manure, mushroom compost and a mixed blend of 5 organic items as well. I also put in a little of the organic Miracle Grow so now all I have to do is sit back and wait.
