Harvest update :) The remaining box - bottom is a little beaten up but it could have still held some veggies - in a temperate climate with tons of rain. I am VERY impressed by that. Potato harvest: Potato harvest with hand for comparison: Some thoughts: 1. Growing potatoes in a box in a...

@Mandy Onderwater Some of the plants died down and some new ones popped up. But I'm still optimistic. I plan to take out the harvest next week. Here is today's photo:

Thank you @DThille - that's a really nice tip!

Some of the box potatoes started dying down last week. I blame the Sun... (Summer hit over here and the soil dries faster) so I started giving them water more often. Some of them flourished... but the ones that started decaying did not stop. Fingers crossed that I still get a good harvest:

I placed 12/13 really bad potatoes that were about to go to the trash bin in pairs of 2/3... they came out all over the place :)) - but since they were that far gone... I was glad they came out at all... can't wait for the harvest :)

Still going strong... :) - I'm so excited! :D

Yes I originally wanted to plant it on soil, BUT I actually was more interested how it goes on concrete - since this will be the main garden in years to come. Also... it gets very wet here (temperate climate) and leaving a cardboard box on the soil is more often than not bound to lead to a crash...

Sure thing! I'm eager myself :)

This year I'm attempting Mark's experiment of growing potatoes in cardboard boxes :)

My final hot pepper of the year :)

@Mary Playford There are pipes that bring water up there, but I've left them on the inside (for now) as we get a lot of negative temperatures during our winters. I am thinking of adding a small greenhouse and have tap (and collected) water in there for use. Thank you!
