Zuccini
 

I've decided to try growing zuccini this year. I'm in southern California
and am growing it on a patio in a half barrel filled with 2 cubic feet of
soil and 1 cubin a half cubic foot of peet moss. Anything i need to add?

Sounds like you are OK. I added dirt mixed with sand, no peat moss, and my
problem was not watering them enough. Mine werent on a deck or anything and
were a little hard to keep an eye on.

Promise you wont be putting any of them in my car when I am not looking.

Have fun. Dwayne

Dave,
My experience growing vegies in containers is that drainage is extra
important. You may find that adding a third or up to a half of coarse
washed
sand will help. Also some balanced fertilizer at one matchbox per 25
litres
or a suitable organic fertilizer such as blood and bone if you prefer.
Alternatively you may try watering with a soluble fertilizer once a
fortnight.
