Not everyone is fortunate enough to have a large garden to grow vegetable. Because of this, many people are simply put off even trying. It is possible however, to grow a selection of vegetables in containers. Not only do they take up far less space than a garden, but you can always move them around and place them somewhere else. Vegetables such as tomatoes, peppers, beans and peas, as well as some that you would not expect such as carrots and potatoes are all easy to grow in containers. So..get your gardening gloves out, and give it a try!

Be creative and think outside the potsWorm cast tea is an excellent all-around fertlizerFor pots, seek out dwarf varieties that are "determinate"--meaning they will grow to a certain size, then stop and bear all their fruit in a few weeksTomato seedlings can be started in smaller pots indoors but then transplanted into bigger pots before placing them outdoorsI have had one long since that started but it is growing like crazy and I am very proud of my garden!
