For those of you who follow me, which, um, is no-one, you'll know I ditched the traditional veggie patch for growing stuff in pots and it's paying dividends.
The advantages of a pot or tub garden for me are:
.easier to keep tree roots at bay. .snails/slugs need to climb which might make the plants less vulnerable? Doubt it.Snails etc are great climbers. .more efficient watering. .easier to change the garden about if need be i.e. just move a pot.

Nice lettuce.
Not sure what happened and last year we had an entire raised bed volunteer growing what appeared to be Black Seeded Simpson lettuce.
We eat a lot of lettuce and there are many of us. Even still, as much as we consumed, it didn't even make a dent.
Was interesting as an experiment and it turned out to be too much for us to eat.
