The advantage of container gardening during typhoons
She can now move her veggies back to their more exposed location a day after typhoon Ambo |
This is one advantage of container gardening versus planting directly on ground or even on a raised bed.
You can move your veggies and protect them from strong typhoon winds and rains so you have the advantage of a greenhouse without its accompanying cost. We appreciate this all the more since these are my wife, Nerissa's COVID-19 quarantine babies. It's also her first time to grow vegetables completely by herself -- from sowing, watering, and protecting them from pests. I only helped transplant those that were too crowded in some bags.
She finds so much delight and pride in them that today I heard the unthinkable, she loves watching them so much that she doesn't want to eat them anymore! :-) Can you believe that!? And she's been a semi-vegetarian since being diagnosed with Lupus 20 years ago.
