So, um, advice I’d give you for container garden, look, get out there and grow something. If you live in an apartment, if you live in a condo and you have a patio, you have space. If it gets sun, you can grow something out there. You say, “Hey, Gray, I want to grow bananas.” Guess what? You can do dwarf bananas. Hey, Grayen, I want to do citrus. Guess what? I got blood orange growing blood orange growing on my deck right now. Now, granted, I know I do live in a home, but this is still container and patio garden. So go out there, experiment, you know, get you some citrus, some some Myers lemons, those are dwarf varieties, you can do it. Strawberries, all of that can be done. So I say go for it. Don’t The only thing you can’t do is what you tell yourself you can’t do. And if you need help, hey, we’re here to help. We sure is. What about you, Andre? What would you tell people? One thing I want to answer one more question as um can when your pineapple grows, you need to transplant to a bigger pot. No. the a regular size pot like it’s a big big can hold a pineapple all the way to maturity. They don’t have massive roots you can grow in a pot. Um but I tell people when they’re starting gardening, even container gardening, what they should grow, grow everything you can get your hands on. So like Grace said, any container if you can put soil in that container, that’s a pot. Drill a couple holes in the bottom. It’s a pot. Um and just plant as many different things as you can. Some of it will grow, some of it will die, some will work, some won’t.
