Talk about a ✨ GLOW UP✨ These photos were taken just 2.5 weeks apart... and I just harvested lettuce for a taco salad!

How to make a salad bowl planter:

1. Purchase supplies
- Use any pot 10inches or wider.
- Organic raised bed soil mix
- Organic Veggie/herb seedlings - we used 7 in our planter
- Organic Garden Tone or other fertilizer (optional)
- Compost (optional)

2. Add soil to the planter and mix in garden tone (see the bag for quantity). Leave about 2 inches at the top for compost.

3. Plan out where you'll add the seedlings. Then, one by one dig a small hole to place the seedling in. Don't compact the soil, but do make sure the plant is upright.

4. After all seedlings are in the planter, add 2 inches of compost around them. This is optional but provides additional nutrition for the growing seedlings.

That's it! Easy peasy. In just a few weeks you'll be able to enjoy your first (of many) harvests!
