I have plant beds in my yard at my new house,
And I want a small garden.
I’ve never planted anything in my life, so I don’t know anything.
Will tomatoes and peppers grow out there?
The soil is very sandy.
Do you have any advice/experience with gardening like this?
You’re probably better off adding soil. For tomatoes and peppers, anyway. You can get good garden soil at a home center. Or even pot them. Tomatoes need a 5 gallon pot. Peppers can deal with half that
I’ll look into potting them.
Does anything grow well in sandy soil by itself?
I have a ton of rosemary,
So I know that does.
my caseworker told me sandy soil is great for roses. but i don’t know if that is true.
just researched online. it says sandy soil is not great for roses, because the water drains too quickly. mine is a mix of soil clay and river sand, maybe that is what my caseworker was talking about.
Tomatoes grows best in a self watering planter / pot. Try too google “self watering plants / pots”
You can make one yourself.
It’s also good for basil and peppers.
I have good succes and lot’s of tomatoes, basil, peppers, every summer.
