Nope! I just leave them there and check on them weekly. If we don’t get rain, I’ll use a spray bottle to water them. I could thin them out if I notice two growing too close together. They can grow in there for the next month until the last frost of winter (in my area, that’s late April). Then yes! I’ll plant them in the garden. If it gets too hot outside (like 70s), I’ll open the containers for the day. It’s about 10 degrees hotter in the containers, so if you get a random hot day, they can fry.
Yay. Marigolds!
Yay! Do you cut the jugs open and scoop into the ground now?
