Putting the right kind of soil in your container garden can save you all kinds of headaches later on. When planting your seeds and starters in a container, use a quality soil that has equal portions of loamy soil, perlite and peat moss. The best place to find this kind of soil is at your local nursery. Here’s a helpful hint when shopping at the local nursery for soil – don’t waste your time reading the contents on the different bags of soil, go straight to the owner or store manager and ask what soil they use in their plants. Use the stuff the experts use!
If you decide to use soil from your back yard or some other source, be aware that if your soil has a high clay content, your plants will suffer from too much water. Because clay naturally doesn’t drain well, and because containers don’t drain well either – I think you get my point.

Even when clean soil mixes are used in containers, weeds will undoubtedly appear during the course of a season. As winds blow and swirl around your balcony or patio, weed seeds will blow in and nestle in your container garden. Weeds should be removed just as you would in a normal in ground garden.
