I have to be honest, I do not understand all the different types of soil available. Who knew dirt could be so complicated? I started my tomatoes out in top soil, although I've since read that this isn't the best idea. I dunno, the plants seem to be doing very well. I had purchased a bag of potting soil to add to the containers, but it seemed very sandy. I'm not so happy with sandy dirt when I'm paying for it!
Why am I buying dirt? Because in my small yard, I don't really have any. Okay, I have some. I dug up about half a container's worth of dirt from my flower garden. I got some more from some land behind my property, but it's full of rocks and difficult to work with. I'm combining this dirt with the sandy potting soil I bought to fill the two tomato pots.
Oh, and I've realized that two tomato pots are not enough. I'm going to have to get some more. And also, more dirt.
