Hi, I usually plant a garden in the ground but have recently moved and need to plant in containers.  My husband made some for me that are 2 feet wide and four feet long and have holes so that they drain well.  I tried a garden this summer but nothing really grew well.  I'm wondering if there is some information about container gardening that I could read.  Mainly, I think I need to figure out the watering system as it's different than planting in the ground.  Also, what you would recommend planting that might do well in containers?  Thank you for your time, Marnie
