Keep an eye on them while they are playing on the patio and if you catch them starting to go bring them to the planting area and tell them to go with lots of praise. Even if you can't get to them fast enough and they are finishing up I would tell them no, bring them to the area and tell them the command for potty.
Ignore the accidents you don't catch them doing.
I was wondering if that was it. Thanks so much for the info. I feel a lot better now.
