Guest guest Posted January 7, 2009 Report Share Posted January 7, 2009 Hi, Melody I think it is you wanting to grow some vegitables but not sure if your landlord will allow it. I want to suggest 5 gallon buckets. When I was growing up my dad grew Tomatoes in 5 Gallon buckets. That is how I got my first taste of gardening. You may have to keep them watered more. If you get an extremely heavy rain you just carefully tip it over and let it drain. I think you could grow Peppers in this manner also. I know of one person that grows his Sweet Potatoes in large totes that are tilted. Oh and by the way in case you guys did not know, you can eat Sweet Potatoes leaves. I fixed them one night and did not tell my Husband and son what they were and they divored them. When I told my husband I wish I had a camera he was very surprised. I know you can grow other plants in containers also. There is a group Edible Container Gardening that you may or may not find usefull.
