 10 Common vegetables that can be easily grown in buckets



Bucket garden is an easy one that many gardeners love, especially for those who live in urban areas. No need for a large backyard, there is plenty of food for daily meals. In today’s post, we are too young to share 10 common vegetables that grow easily in buckets. So, if you find ways to grow food in your small space, check out our recommendations here.


How to buy buckets? Do not worry! You can find them at the local home improvement store and restaurant caterers or on the Internet. Whether you want to grow your vegetables in 5-gallon buckets or some 10-gallon buckets, they are available. Before growing, make good drainage holes in the bottom of the buckets. Later, you can sow the seeds in potting soil in buckets or plant seedlings, making sure both work well. In addition, do not forget about other basic care such as watering, fertilizing, and exposure to sunlight.


1 cucumber


Cucumbers like to grow in full sun. You can grow it from seeds and seedlings. When they mature, you need to support them with a crossbar.


2 Lettuce



You can easily grow lettuce in buckets by sowing the seeds of lettuce directly into the soil or replanting the lettuce from the kitchen.


3 peppercorns


Pepper can be easily grown from store-bought chili seeds. Simply, open them and collect the seeds from those healthy peppers. Then, sow them directly in the potting soil of the buckets or in the seed tray.


4 peas



Growing peas is much easier by sowing the seeds indoors in seed trays. When they grow to 5-6 inches in length, it is time to plant the seedlings in your outdoor buckets.


5 onions


Onions are one of the easiest vegetables to start growing onions in buckets from seeds or seedlings. If they get 6-7 hours of direct sunlight a day they will grow happily and have enough space.


6 Lettuce



Spinach is a very healthy leafy green and you can easily grow this vegetable in buckets by sowing the seeds directly in the potting soil of your buckets.


7 ginger


Ginger can be completely re-grown from kitchen waste by taking some good and healthy rhizomes of ginger and dividing them into pieces and planting them in the soil. Do not forget to water them and they will grow.


8 Garlic



Like ginger, you can easily grow garlic in the kitchen with its garbage. Ideally, take some healthy garlic bulbs from your kitchen and separate them into cloves. Select some healthy and large cloves and sow in the soil. Give about 5-6 inches between each clove and water.


9 carrots


You can easily grow small carrot varieties in buckets by sowing carrot seeds directly into the potting soil of your buckets. Remember to give them water.


10 radishes



Radish is the best vegetable to grow in a bucket. After a while, you can harvest. Grow them directly from seeds.

As I experimented with several ground covers to complement my perennials and shrubs, I was struck by the plants that were strong enough to withstand the foot traffic of people strolling through my gardens and trampling pets. It was clear which ones were hardy enough to withstand the heat and humidity we experience each summer, stay evergreen, and display beautiful flowers for months. Here are my favorites. 1. Green carpet rupturewort: The toughest of the tough I often refer to Green Carpet Rapturewort as my "tractor-trailer" plant because even though stray vehicles sometimes make deep impacts in my garden, the rapture never turns yellow. Creeping stems of small, bright green leaves form a dense green...
