A lot of useful information, that I didn't either know... or maybe even forgot.
Really sparking some interesting ideas.
I can make the cottage garden more productive and not really change the feel of it with these.
The barrels - ours (Lavalleys) are a resin plastic - and I think would be wide enough at the top for the garlic I hope to plant in a few weeks.
The pail idea... the hanging and transport possibilities I didn't even think of.
And moving the flower pots back to protect from deer is a great idea also.
I can use the deck rails with more sunlight to get better growth and set up a means to move them back against the wall with the deep overhang to protect against predator and weather.
Obviously the people that used the strong smelling repellent this year probably noticed what our customers complained about... the excess rain seemed to wash it away much more quickly requiring more applications for it to be effective. I hate deer netting as it changes the feel of the garden.
