    How to plant vegetables in bags of soil

    #1 Buy a bag of universal soil for vegetables

    #2 Shake the bag well to air the medium properly and loosen it.

    #3 On one side pierce a few drainage holes.

    #4 Turn the bag upside down and cut out a huge hole (save the edges). You can also cut a few smaller holes so that the vegetables fit them.

    #5 Plant the seedlings in the soil (or sprinkle the seeds) and water it properly.

    #6 Leave the bag in a spot with good sun exposure remembering to water it regularly. You can put it on the lawn, balcony or a special supporting grid.

    In fact all vegetables, herbs or even some fruit can be grown like this. Remember to give some support for the taller ones e.g. bamboo sticks
