C'est la vie, non?
I shall try again this coming year and I'll try to prepare the land over the course of the winter and have a slightly larger crop ready to nurture.
Here's what I think I'll need:
- nightime farming lighting (currently a ladder with 2 clamp lights) due to my sleep/work schedule.
- beds. I think I should try in-ground beds this time.
- a larger variety of plants
- recipes. I gotta eat what I grow. I didn't have enough this year to provide recipe cornerstones and I didn't have recipes to put what I had (regardless of quantities) to good use.

Prepare a winter garden that is good for temperate climates like Georgia.
Excellent idea.
I think, though, that I need to take the earliest of the cooler months to prepare beds and begin to lay out a permanent in-ground garden. I think that the container garden idea that I started to implement may be a little to ambitious, monetarily.
You'd be amazed at what each terra cotta pot costs ... at Home Depot & Lowe's, anyway.
I guess, if I'm still going to go with the container garden, I'll have to break down and use the corny-looking plastic pots; they stack better, they aren't as fragile, and a bit cheaper. That and I really need to learn to hit thrift stores and open markets.
