I will be able to grow 44 pepper plants in this space. A sunken container garden allows you to save money by reducing resources. It also allows you to plant more in a smaller footprint. Sunken containers are great additions to your vegetable gardens.

1 cubit diameter x 1 cubit deep. What's a cubit? Sorry, but I don't see the purpose of cutting out the bottom and putting it into the ground. It still allows undesirable insects and grubs to get to your roots. Most plants grow within the top 8"-12" of soil. Raise the container above the ground and plant in the container's soil.
Why not just plant in the ground, planting them in pots seems pointless and unhealthy for plants like peppers
Are you concerned about voles coming up through the bottom of the containers and your other raised beds? I am in Northern VA, not that far from you, and they are destroying everything. I have an inground garden and want to convert to raised beds with hardware cloth on the bottoms, either that or going to throw down some Dewitt ground cover and grow everything in containers. So heartbreaking, have had stuff planted only 3 weeks and already they got my corn and working on teh radishes and beets. :(.
Hey Gary! Great idea!! May God the Father and God the Mother bless you brother!!! I will try this too! BC Canada
Hi Gary! I LOVE your videos! Thank you for those. I have a quick question. You mention shredded hardwood in a lot of your videos. I went to Home Depot asking for that and they looked at me like I had 4 heads LOL. I said I seen you mulch with it. They told me to use wood pellets ??? to conserve water (I dont even know what that is either). Anyway, WHERE can I find shredded hardwood? Thank you so much!!
I have been doing this for the past 3-4yrs
I did this a couple of summers ago except it is a hydroponic passive Kratky system. I did it with 5 gallon and 55 gallon food grade containers. I live in the desert and the water in the above ground hydro containers was getting too hot even with air stones. It has worked well for me – I have straw mulch around them to keep the ground cooler.
I do something similar with tyres great to plant herbs too. Love you videos
not disputing your gardening skill . but does it not make it easyer for the slug to get to your plants ? not knowing if you have a slug problem or not .
very interesting! thank you for showing this!
The garden is looking great <3
Really like what you did there. may try that myself.
Hello Gary. I love your videos very much. I'm growing Carolina Reaper and I've got a 4-4-4 Fertilizer to feed them when their true leaves grows. The problem is I dont know how to mix it with water cause there is no clear instruction on it or on the web. I've read that 4tbsp of fertilizer in 1.5 Litre is reasonable. Would you plz help me on that!?
Your garden is looking great Gary! Your putting in a lot of work. Thanks for taking us along as it progresses.
Just plant into the soil. That’s a waste of valuable time!
looks great, thanks for the tips.
Can't wait to see more. Looks great. I wish I had your energy. Kudos to you Gary. Thhanks so much for sharing. Blessings
Gary you are a very very very smart man.
Can it be used in composting or will that break it down too much? And if it can, how would you recommend adding to compost?
interesting, thanks for sharing ^^
Could this be used as a foliar spray?
Do y'all know where I can buy Watermelons from a farmer? I'm in Jacksonville Florida. I need a lot. I'm selling them like crazy but I'm getting middlemaned.
