@@cybertones942 Yeah I exclusively grow in containers too. It makes it a lot easier to exchange the soil to prevent disease, its a lot more water/feed efficient (which saves a lot of labor), and you can move them around to maximize your space. I'm slowly converting to hydroponics though. I'm using old green vegetation seeped in 5 gallon buckets to make the liquid feed. I tried worm tea but its not strong enough for hydroponics. The dirt from the worms however is awesome as a seed starting medium though as it is extremely clean. No mold or other junk even if you overwater.

Well, that’s pretty much the the basics of gardening. - toss a seed(s), water it moderately, give it sun (make sure your plant if for your climate) and just take care of it, like you would with a child. Exercise common sense, like don’t overwater or dry it out, check for pests, etc. The fertilizer are really unnecessary additives. You really think that thousands of years ago when these crops were being grown in mass, you think they had commercial fertilizers? No. In fact, many people still grow their corn fields without fertilizer and all the fancy additives.

To be fair, that's true of some plants. Strawberries and raspberries are weeds here, and you can't not grow radishes and potatoes if they find soil. Alliums are practically unstoppable, too.
Add a "Bean" and a "melon" type plant too. I personally mix cuccumbers and pintos with small zucc's (i harvest small) and peas. The corn makes the trellis for the beans and climbing melons. If you dont mind the ground cover, you can do pumpkins/watermelons too but i find those sprawl to much for buckets. These 3 together "feed" each other to some degree, its known as the "3 sisters". :D Try totes next.

@@stevenschnepp576 There is nothing wrong with GMO as a process. It's as natural as cross pollination, they just cut off all the bad/superfluous offspring and time it would take and go direct to the phenotype they want. The reason you don't want GMO corn is because it is almost always modified for the purposes of heavy starch for making things like corn flour. That said, the easy solution is to just plant kernels of uncooked corn you already like to eat like what you get from the grocery store. It just involves dehydrating the kernels and snapping them off. If you like popcorn, you can also grow the popcorn kernels.

If you grow corns and other plants, you can keep pests away by growing some companion plants like lemon grass, mums or other kinds of edible chrysanthemum families. I have those mixing in my raised beds this season, and some of my veggie plants don't get attacked by pests so far. The strong scene really keep pests away
