You only need basic gardening skills to have a successful container garden. Let’s start with the containers. Make sure that if your garden pots are made from a porous material such as wood or terracotta, that they are properly sealed on the inside with a quality water sealant. If not, a lot of the water that is meant for the plants will be soaked up by the pot causing them to dry out sooner than expected.
Watering Your Plants
Not over watering is just as important as it is not to underwater. Placing a bowl or saucer underneath your garden pots will catch any extra water and keep the water from rotting and staining your deck or patio. Filling the saucers up with water is the best way to water your container garden. By doing it this way, you avoid over watering and you keep the water from spilling over the top rim of the saucer. The water actually feeds the roots of your plants by seeping up through the garden pot’s hole in the bottom.

Garden pots are a great and versatile way to bring new life your existing garden. But, there are a lot objects you can use in place of your standard garden pot. For instance, you could use an old watering can to place plants in. Simply drill or cut a hole in the bottom for drainage and you’ve got yourself an instant charming plant container.
If you happen to have a large stump close to your garden, you can hollow it out deep enough to sink a pot into. Just use a wide boring drill bit to drill out holes that make the outside diameter of the circle. When you have the circle all drilled out, keep drilling as many holes as you can on the inside of the circle. Once you have as much material drilled out as you can, remove the remaining wood with a chisel. Then fill in the gaps around the pot with dirt.
