CONTAINER OR SMALL GARDEN IDEAS
GROW YOUR OWN TOMATOES IN A POT
Even if you have a small space, you can still have a garden area.
Container gardening is a wonderful alternative. The only drawback is -you MUST make sure you water frequently. Since there is no root system spreading out under the soil to take in moisture, you must make sure your plant has enough to drink in the heat of the summer.
Did you know, You can grow tomatoes in pots ?
Big Boy tomatoes are my all time favorite tomatoes.
Take a 5 gallon pot, with drainage holes, make sure you have excellent soil mix prepared. Do not just go out and dig up some regular ground dirt. That won't work. Your plants are only as healthy as the soil they are growing in- All you do is place your favorite tomato plant in the soil in the pot, keep it watered and well fertilized. Then all you have to do is-
Watch those tomatoes grow !
When I did this for my mom, I placed a cage over the plant so she didn't have to bend down to harvest her tomatoes. She had fresh grown tomatoes allllllllll summer long !

From time to time, I will be posting more ideas for you who have small garden areas.
