PLANT THEM IN THE GROUND
If you have ample sunlight and space in your yard, planting tomatoes directly in the ground can significantly boost your harvest. Bonnie Plants suggests this method can also reduce the need for watering.
Be mindful of wildlife such as deer and rabbits that may be attracted to your garden.
GROW THEM IN A WINDOW BOX
Even with limited gardening space, you can successfully grow tomatoes in a window box.
Opt for window boxes with a capacity of at least 1.5 liters of soil.
Support the plants with a string trellis attached to the wall. Choose smaller tomato varieties for this method.
GROW THEM IN A HANGING BASKET
Concerned about weight on your windowsill? Try using a hanging basket instead of a pot on the porch.
Keep in mind that hanging baskets may require more frequent watering due to increased evaporation. Consider using a cascade cherry tomato variety.
