If you have a small backyard and you want to start gardening, there’s a simple solution.
Bucket gardening. All you need are some 5-gallon buckets, gravel, peat moss, soil, and compost. Maybe that sounds like lots, but actually, it’s simple. For patients with small space, not only is bucket gardening a perfect option, but it also has several benefits over conventional gardening.
You have many plants to choose from! You’re not going to have to do any weeding, and you’re going to have fewer pests to deal with. So now I will cover 27 fruits and vegetables that you can grow in buckets. These range from cherries and onions to tomatoes, cucumbers, and almost anything else in a larger garden you would normally plant!
These foods grow amazingly in buckets, so there is no need to worry about getting smaller than the average tomato. If you want a large tomato beefsteak in a container, that’s just what you’re going to get. Whether or not you have enormous gardening space, if you want to grow your own fresh produce, you can, and we have the perfect vegetables and fruits for you to grow in those buckets!
These are all really great plants. I really like potatoes and lettuce.
