February gardening tips: Preparing the pots
Rooftop gardening
February 24, 2010
Rooftop gardening is an extreme solution for many growers that can't use a garden, but it can be really satisfying: you will be amazed by your flowers, aromatic herbs, chili peppers and even vegetables.
In February many plants are died, and the young ones are still indoor.
February Rooftop Gardening
The pots are divided into four zones.
1. The
plants sowed during autumn and winter
: they will be harvested soon, and the pots will be available for the spring transplantings.
2. The
last year plants
that you want to grow this year too.
These are three chili plants.
3. The
empty pots with compost
ready to host the new plants.

4. Isolated from the other pots, the
pots where plants have shown parasites
.
Throw away the soil in these pots and wash them carefully.
