You should also see if your community has community gardens or places where you can rent a garden space. I used to have a garden plot over where a nike missile silo used to be, until they turned it into a golf course. The world needs more gardens and fewer golf courses!

Reply:If you have a large bucket, say a five gallon...make holes in it for drainage, place some straw in the bottom and add dirt, potting soil etc,,,and place a tomato plant in it.....you should grow tomatoes...
Reply:Hell yeah! Stick some stuff in pots.
