Three weeks ago, Rich and I planted a vegetable garden on our back deck. In our garden, we planted:
6 tomatoe plants, (so we can makeMarinara).
hot peppers, (so we can make Relish).
an eggplant, (so we can make Eggplant Parmesan).
cucumber, (so we can make some PICKLES!).
basil, (to make some Pesto).
mint, (so we can cool off with some Mint Julips).
All our plants seem to be doing pretty well except for our pepper plant. The wind gets so strong out on the porch that it blows the flowers off the pepper plant. I hope that it gets strong enough to be able to take the wind.
Anyways, here are some tips if you want to turn your porch into a vegetable garden.
