You can absolutely grow an entire salad's worth of veggies-think lettuce, peppers, cucumbers, and even tomatoes-all in one pot! Over the years, I've experimented with growing various micro dwarf vegetables and fruits in small spaces, like my balcony. I've now upgraded to a little bit larger of a balcony, but I still try and grow as much food as possible in the smallest amount of space.
Thanks to Espoma Organic for partnering on this video!
I started wondering, "Why not take these tiny little plants and plant them all up together in one pot?" And that's how I discovered three key principles for successful one-pot salad gardens, which I'm excited to share with you!
