Here's an idea. Make a video series on how you would build a greenhouse for your potted plants. I'd love to see that and your plants would love it too!

Good tips, thank you. I live in Tucson, zone 9b also and have both container and planted trees too. It's a struggle at times for sure. I especially like the square container tip as I use a dolly to move them and it's a pain to keep them steady.

I have a huge problem with mold flies. I think its the potting soil. I cant seem to grow anything because of it. I steralizw soil, water from the bottom, change soil, then the tree seedlings die. i just cant do it. I think I need to upgrade soil.
