Change crops around

I wrote about crop rotation last time round, so take this into consideration too when planning on what to buy and grow. It’s always be er to have five healthy plants of one type of vegetable rather than 20, or even 50, less healthy plants.

The beauty of growing in containers is that crop rotation can be easily applied, as every time you plant a new crop you can either plant the next varieties of plants in your rotation diary or simply empty the soil and start again.
