Luckily, I have a full-sized backyard, so we're not going a container garden. We live in SoCal. I need to pull these effing garlic bulbs out and start planting my tomatoes soon! heffalump on "Who has a fruit/vegetable container garden?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-has-a-fruitvegetable-container-garden#post-161171 Thu, 17 May 2012 09:26:06 +0000 heffalump 161171@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I don't grow veggies yet.... but hoping to in the future! I'll keep an eye out for this thread to get ideas too. mediagirl on "Who has a fruit/vegetable container garden?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-has-a-fruitvegetable-container-garden#post-160996 Thu, 17 May 2012 05:01:40 +0000 mediagirl 160996@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I'm doing tomatoes, red peppers and jalapeño peppers in a container garden this year. Doing herbs, as well. I'm in NC and due in June. I don't want all the work of the real garden again so, the plants are in posts. I think they'll do okay, just plant everything in a container that gives it room to grow. My starter plants came from the farmers market. I use miracle grow on veggies since they seem to like it.

I would love to get a few plants going. I finally have a full-sun balcony, although there's not a lot of extra room. I am in zone 5. Ideally, I would grow low-maintenance stuff that doesn't harvest too late since I am due in September.
