How to Grow Vegetables in a Bathtub

1. Choose a bathtub

The best bathtub for growing vegetables is one that is made of a non-porous material, such as fiberglass or plastic. Avoid using a metal bathtub, as the metal can leach into the soil and harm your plants.

2. Prepare the bathtub

Before you start planting, you need to prepare the bathtub by drilling a few holes in the bottom for drainage. You can also add a layer of gravel or pebbles to the bottom of the tub to help with drainage.

3. Add soil

Fill the bathtub with potting soil or a mixture of topsoil and compost. The soil should be well-draining and have a pH between 6.0 and 6.8.

4. Plant your seeds

Sow your seeds directly into the soil, according to the instructions on the seed packet. Be sure to space the seeds according to the recommended spacing.

5. Water your plants

Water your plants regularly, but do not overwater. The soil should be kept moist, but not soggy.

6. Fertilize your plants

Fertilize your plants every few weeks with a balanced fertilizer, such as a 10-10-10 fertilizer.

7. Harvest your vegetables

When your vegetables are ripe, harvest them and enjoy!
