Planting zucchini, watermelon etc. in whisky barrels

Planting zucchini, watermelon etc. in whisky barrels
Posted by Paula from CA / 8.5 on 2009-02-18 11:12:00

Hi,
My garden is a raised garden and last year I grew zucchini, pumpkins, gourds and other plants that ended up overtaking my garden and not leaving any room for regular veggies.

Is there any reason why I couldn't grow those things in a wisky barrel?

Thank you
