Question of the Day

Test your gardening-in-a-pot skills.

Does it make any difference what time of day I water my outdoor potted plants? Can I reuse potting soil from last season? How do you determine if a potted shrub can survive the winter outdoors? My ficus keeps dropping its leaves. What's up? I want to use a barrel as a planter, but it doesn't have any drainage holes. Is that OK? Is there a way to cut down on the weight of container gardens? What's the difference between potting soil and potting media?
