Slug Barrier!

[Kapohocat]

One of my good friend's (dear Leslie!) just gave me her secret for growing items like lettuce, etc without slugs. She takes a kiddie pool - the hard plastic kind - it has a little plastic lip on it. She drills 10-15 small holes for drainage, and fills it with soil and plants lettuce, etc in it. The slugs can not seem to navigate the lip. (Plus she says she can take her garden bench out and work pulling weeds at 15".)

This was one of those DUH it is so simple ideas so I had to share it!
