Want to share my side project with you all.
I’ve got a corner patio that I have some tomatoes, okra, jalapeños, and some a southern mix of greens I’d like to call them...
I have my cannabis in a tent.. trying to make it work!! But my little outdoor garden has got me wondering..this fall I plan to til up me a 10 x 10 small garden and have at it!!
Let me know what you think.. oh and by far my favorite is the tomato plant in the orange hempy bucket... it’s growing like crazy:hug:
 
Cool. I have garden space in my yard but I always run out of room and end up with all kinds of stuff in containers spread around the yard. I can't use my patio anymore because I built an awning so no sun on the patio anymore. But at least we can sit out under the awning in the summer. It's on the west side of the house and it was unbearable sitting out there in the sun in the summer. Plus I can keep my grill, smoker, and other things out there in the winter when it rains.
 
Funny I was telling my wife about a screened in back patio porch.. suns blazing, actually I hate it.. plants seem to enjoy it!!

We couldn't sit out and enjoy our patio in the summer or when it rained. We had one of those big umbrellas but they don't cut it. Now when it's 90 plus and the sun beating down we can sit under the shade. And when it's raining I can stay dry working on projects and such.
 
Those tomatoes are hardy plants.

I did an experiment, where I planted a tomato in 1 gallon...no soil, no medium....just water (hempy without the media). Tomato just survived on evaporation and condensation, it grow to over 5 ft tall. :bigjoint:. The only drawback is the flowers didnt convert to fruit. But it did answered my theory that root can survive with minimal moisture. Wish I've taken pictures of it.

I gotta cage around it..and a few ties..it has began to grow tomatoes so it should be slowing down...I have a couple in soil but the growth rate is night and day difference.i think I could grow a super sativa tree in it...maybe something a bit larger
