The box definitely takes a lot of dirt. In my first year, if I get more than I started out with (9oz), than I will be happy!! I will definitely keep your advice in mind next year!alizardinthegardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17667898926523249543noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3805718450165728591.post-69543087496409129732010-06-06T09:48:25.298-04:002010-06-06T09:48:25.298-04:00A hint on the potato box, Liz.

So as you add dirt, make it dirt, not some extra enriched soil. Also, you will find that you can manage the Colorado Potato Beetles by picking them off and and dropping them in a jar of soapy water. You really do not need to use Bt. Check under the leaves for orange seed cases.Lesliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08535826398347449121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3805718450165728591.post-5102416908787354112010-05-23T20:22:58.168-04:002010-05-23T20:22:58.168-04:00Very impressive garden!Very impressive garden!Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03932975112078606231noreply@blogger.com
