So, tomatoes and zucchini. I have been told that growing them in hanging pots works just as well as in the ground, and then you don't lose ground to them. True/false?
I have been looking at the yard today, and going on what you've told me I think I found the best place for planting, it's a bed that gets half shade half sun. The decorative plants I grew last year taught me well about the sun in that bed. I can get a big variety in that one bed, if I can keep the tomatoes and zucchini out of it. And we have squirrels. Lots and lots of squirrels. Even our beagle hasn't scared them all off. I think if I can hang the tomatoes from the HOUSE I might keep more this year than last. I got to keep ONE of like 24 that popped up.
