Almost time for 2018 garden

So time is getting near for my container gardening, sometime in april. I live in Central California out in the valley and I do all my stuff in containers due to we have gopher problems every year. I'm currently just slightly redesigning my area. All my containers go on pallets and shade cloth over entire area. It's nothing fancy but it works.
All I do is tomatoes and peppers (jalapeño, cyenne peppers, banana peppers). I may try couple other peppers this year as well. Once I get the layout and pallets down I will take a pic and upload it for everyone, so untill then, happy gardening everyone.

So here is my layout for gardening area. Just haven't hung the shade cloth, I will do that when I get plants going. The white poles are basically from those cheap canopies. I figure I can get 10 containers in there.
Nothing fancy but it works.
