Yes! Yes! I think we need this.

Edit: I thought I was in the veggie forum. I think it would be better as a sticky there, because that's where we talk about veggies. Maybe we can get used to it over here.

I am planning on a few peppers, Jalapeno and Thai for containers but I found something REALLY cool yesterday! I found stringless, and SELF SUPPORTING sugar snap peas!! I think I will try a vine in a container? I want to start one now so thought I would give it a shot inside. The cats might like them a lot too, hehe, but I really want them NOW. Anybody ever grow peas inside?

I planted these last year then forgot about them. which is why the pot is a mess. Anyway, I took em out today so I can plant the chives i started from seed in the same pot. I rather see my seeds grow.

They are not fully grown & not great looking like they have at the store BUT the leaves taste soooooooo good! I ate a lot 'em! Yum Yum Yum.

I didn't clean 'em much before I took the picture.

PS. hopefully this is the kind of thing what "container gardening" section of forum is for?

Yep! That's what it's for and to ask how to do various veggies/fruit in containers, and just whatever is on your mind about containers, I guess.

I think it would be nice to share successes and failures so that others can learn from the experiences of others. And since there aren't too many who do it, we can use all the help, tips, etc. we can get. Maybe if we could get some sharing going on, more people might want to give it a try.

Your chives look good to me! Did you try any of the white part or just the green?
