What type of soil do you suggest for a large fifth floor patio garden in a high rise? It is a vegetable garden.
Hardiness Zone: 5a
Bags of miracle grow vegetable blend. Leave the bags intact and cut small "X" in the top of the bag; plant startings through the "X" and lightly water. By keeping the bag intact, you'll save a lot of clean up work, the bag will retain moisture and the "steam" will help the plants grow. Good Luck!
