Wow! I just keep finding new forums :)

How did you get your strawberries to take in them?

I tried the same thing with my Strawberries but when I planted them, I kept burying the crown (blush) and of course they all died (except for 6 little plants that I put in a windowbox that are setting fruit now).

I've got about12 Roma tomato plants in 3 ten hole grow-bags (I didn't really realize I was crowding them as much as I was when I planted the bags up, but I've got tomatoes like crazy so....) and 1 ten hole bag full of Arugula and all are doing great :)

(I'll post better and more current pics once Mom get's back from my nephews graduation with my camera ha ha)

Best Wishes

And what about some potatoes ? The leaves are quite pretty. Last year I've grown some in compost bags with good results. But be sure to put them in the bottom, so the other plants will not get to much shade.
