   My dandelions like to grow in my ground pots.  I think of them as   
   nutrition  thieves.  And since they are so close to what I actually   
   want to grow, I just pull and re-pull them out.   
      
      
   Right now I am waiting for the ground to dry out so I can pickle   
   them a month or so before planting in my pots.
