Is anyone going to plant patio potted tomatoes," Cherry"

I love fresh vegetables. The problem is that we can't grow many because of the lack of sun where we are located. We have many trees around the yard. We do plant tomatoes in pots and even have tried green beans. Each have done well. The green beans are planted in three separate pots. Poles are added the the pots and the beans climb the poles. The poles are tied together to form a tripod. This allows the vines to intertwine. The grandchildren love to pick the fresh green beans. We use a packet of seeds for the pole beans. Because we have such a short season we buy tomatoes that have already been started. The grape tomatoes are the best. But, I may try my hand at at least one full-sized tomato this year. Another good one to try would be cucumbers. They will climb a pole if you put it in the pot. Or, just let it drape over the side of the pot.

I leave the green fingers to my mum, she is a whizz in the planting department and she always does us proud, we always have nice tasting, fresh, healthy veg from the garden, she does both, plant from seeds and actual plants, although everywhere is covered in snow at the moment as we wait for the dreaded winter to end, then she will be busy with the vegetables. I don't like cherry tomatoes to be honest but your banana peppers sound exotic! I love red peppers, great in salads and don't you agree vegetables taste extra special when you have grown them yourself?

Very soon I will be starting seeds inside my house for spring planting. I usually have 2 or more Cherry and or Grape Tomato plants each year. Those are usually bought from a nurswry as popoosed to starting them from seeds due to my cold climate etc. I also usually have about a dozen Banana pepper plants. I have a large garden each year and I am getting hyped for seed starting indoors soon. The ground and air is not warm enough here until mid to late May to plant outside so I give about 60 days for seeds to grow inside usually. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

I do have a garden in pots. I have recently grown some sweet peas and peppers. The tomatoes, I haven't started yet. I just plant two to three pots since I have limited space.

I think this year I am going to plant the regular tomato plants in my yard, along with some cucumbers, watermelons, peppers and I am not sure what else.. I love good fresh tomatoes all summer long but I also love to pick them when they are green and freeze them to eat during the winter months.. Tomatoes are my favorite, especially when they are fresh from the garden..

If you start tomatoes from seed in Michigan, you need to start them indoors for the first 6 weeks or so. After the last frost, then you can put them out. That's why a lot of us start with plants. I have started tomatoes indoors in the past but have not done it in several years. I may be doing that this year. Last year I had tomato plants in pots but the spot I chose to put them in the sun was a spot that was easily ignored and my poor plants got rather neglected last year. I won't do that again. I will probably start a small garden. I'll have to move it to a different spot than I've done in the past too. Our dog is tied in part of that area. I also like to plant green beans, peppers, jalapenos, and zucchini.

I have already bought some cherry tomatoe seeds and also some herbs. It is a bit too early to plant them as the weather is very cold and frosty and we are getting quite a bit of snow. Hopefully I will be able to start planting at the end of this month. I will grow the cherry tomatoes in containers along the window of my utility room and I will plant lemon grass, all year round lettuce, parsley and thyme outside on the patio. That should be enough to keep me busy for a while if the wild rabbits don't get into my garden and eat them all.

We plant a potatoes, peppers, tomatoes, squash, corn, carrots, onions, garlic and so much more. We love our veggies. We planted some more fruit trees last year. We love to garden and you know the food will not be recalled. LOL

I have no way of doing that considering where I live. My kitchen doesn't even have a window to set pots in front of. Someday though, maybe I can find a way to do that. To grow things.

We get a lot of free tomatoes every year so I do not plant my own.

Yes, I did this last year. Well, I planted them in a platic pot and placed the pot behind my garage so my twins would not tear the tomatoes out. I love cherry tomatoes and love growing them too.

Hi eaforeman6! I do have a vegetable garden but they are not planted in pots. I have told my husband that I really wanted to put them in pots so will be doing the replanting before the rainy season here in our country. during the summer months, I can't replant them for they might die. I do have some eggplants, okra and peppers, just don't know what variety of peppers I have. lol.. I am planning to plant tomatoes too. I start with seeds. Take care and have a great day! lovelots..faith
