Arugula can make, for me, the difference between a rather boring salad and something full of life. Just a small amount of arugula will do the trick. I have to place them on the table by my side, as a dressing, because Leticia cannot stand its bitter flavor.
I have been planting, little by little arugula in a couple of containers in the garage. When I eat up one container, I plant another one. Now I just planted the last winter arugula (I think that the next batch will have to be when I return from my vacations).
I covered the container with some newspaper sheets. That will keep them from freezing. The seedlings come out in a few days so I will have to be in the look out to uncover them and maybe place some plastic over them if needed.
Do you plant veggies in containers? Do you plant veggies or herbs in winter? I am learning a whole different kind of gardening tthat is Luna proof.

I would like to know how you have made your farming Luna proof.
I plant a lots of veggies in my terrace garden. I love the fresh produce from my garden.

I have a small patio that cannot be reached by her. It was just to sun dry clothes, but now I am planting seeds in containers ( a few in each) and they grow there.

@arunima25 It is a pity because I spent a lot of money making raised beds before Luna´s time.

Now that it is not as cold as 2 weeks ago, I will plant some veggies in containers. Lettuce is a cold weather crop.

@LadyDuck Here we have only a few days of a minimum under 0 C. I hope these days are over. But I can plant them (seeds) in containers and move them to the garage during the night or cover them with plastic.

@marguicha Lettuce does not grow in winter here, it freezes.

My body is too old to bed to do much gardening. So I will have to do it this way.
