Intensive Planting Tomatoes
In gardening, there's no one and only “right” way to do things—it's your space, so don't hesitate to try different methods, even if they aren't what everyone else recommends. Our friend @gingerfootgarden experimented with growing tomatoes in containers and raised beds. We're thrilled to hear her tomatoes are thriving now that they have more room to grow in her Vego Garden raised bed! What's your biggest takeaway from this year's gardening season?

Growing Onion Seedlings
Times to grow Onion 🧅 Onions are planted early in the spring and harvested from summer through the fall. 🧅 Onion are heavy feeders and require constant nourishment to produce big bulbs. Onion love nitrogen fertilizer. I use fish fertilizer. 🧅 Separate the seedlings carefully and keep it moist. 🧅 Plant it about an Inch deep, and about 5-6” apart.

Pro-Tip: Watering Hose
If you want to extend the life of your hose, relieve the pressure before walking away. This is especially true in the Texas summer, the heat and pressure will weaken the hose and it WILL eventually burst! From the Vego Garden at @texasecofarms
Retractable Hose Reel
This retractable hose reel from @vego_garden is a game changer! I decided to attach it to an existing post that just so happened to be in the perfect spot for it. It’s a round post, so to ensure a solid connection I made that mounting board from a 2x4 and pre drilled all the holes. I attached the board with heavy lag screws. You can also attach it to a 4x4 post or purchase their metal post for installation on concrete. We’re very happy gardeners! From the Vego Garden at @texasecofarms

Eggplant is a prolific plant to grow if it’s in the right location and conditions. Here’s how our friend @gingerfootgarden grows her eggplant: 🍆 Sow in early February and transplant after the threat of frost is over. 🍆 Plant in a sunny location (6-8 hours of sunlight) with well-draining soil. Another helpful tip is to plant eggplants near a worm composter. The fertile soil and worm castings can minimize flea beetles, the small black insects that chew holes in the leaves.
