For the first time I am planting some container plants from Sarah Raven. I have an old galvinised chicken feeder, an old dolly tub and an old bath.
I understand I need to drill holes in the bottom of all of them and use some container compost,possibly Gro Sure Container Compost and nothing else. Just sit back and enjoy. Seems too simply.
But what happens during the winter and next spring ? Do I need to replace the compost with new stuff, add something to it or ignore them and stay relaxed ?
Both Sarah Raven and Gro Sure give no advice at all so do they expect me to bin them and start again in a years time or what ?
