Those two are adorable! Fabulous job on the garden. How did you get ahold of so many containers? I don't think I've ever seen a tomato plant more loaded than yours!

Containers, I have a friend who was going to plant blue berries in them, she had over 500, I bought a lot sold some to cover mine, I now have 150 containers and thats enough, oh! I about forgot I got two plastic dunking tanks about 5' across from a rental store(the throw a ball and ya fall in type) and cut them 16" deep and made 6 rings to plant my squash and melons in. the 150 blue tubs cost me 2.50 each, with 4- 5/8" holes already drilled in the bottom (thanks). you may check a salvage lot in your area, I have seen all kinds of stuff in ours. I bought 3 rolls of concrete wire mesh for $43.00 there about 98.00-130.00 each at lumber yard. and bought a roll of field fence 42" high looked new, a full roll for 17.50 did some horse trading with it. Maybe call some local scrapers they may find you some whole barrels and cut them in half, good luck later Guilt trip

Those are Roma Tomatoes They Love Containers, I have tried others but those babys love containers, see I let the kids plant all the seeds. look at the corn in the container that baby got some thinning after the picture, also the lettuce Romaine went crazy in the containers, they planted one packet in one tub, I transplanted into three more tubs, we pulled/cut lettuce for weeks, do plant Romaine and Romas and you won't go hungry, later Guilt Trip

Great containers...lots of room for root development.

I've got a couple of those, for catching rainwater.
