You could use containers for your upstairs garden and ground garden. You could use a pallet by putting weed barrier cloth and/or cardboard on the back of the pallet then add soil and plants. You could also build a 4'x4' frame out of 2'x6's or cinder blocks lay down an inexpensive plastic tarp or cardboard then mix your soil consisting of 4 cu ft of peat moss, 4 cu ft of vermiculite and 5 different kinds of natural compost from Home Depot, Walmart or any other source and fill up your 4 x4 garden area with the components listed above mixed well. This soil can be used for any other containers.
