- Get started earlier! (my wife giving birth to our son certainly interrupted things)
- Soaker hoses do not work, they are too big, inflexible, and difficult to water evenly unless you buy all the same kind. Maybe a drip irrigation system?
- It is very useful to have a father in law that is an electrician when building trellises.
- I need a dedicated perennial herb box: oregano, rosemary, sage, thyme, savory, mint, chives, etc
- Need to catch crop some radishes, and space them out this time, so I’m not eating radishes morning, noon, and night.
- If putting cardboard down, put them inside the boxes, don’t lay the boxes on top of the cardboard, or the soil will leak out when it’s watered.
- Hammer in the copper tape before filling the boxes, especially when there isn’t much space to swing the hammer.
