Re: Vegetables to plant in small space
If you like tomatoes put them in some nice pots, you can go from the very decorative cherry version to your beefsteak and have them grow on your balcony.
I am not much of a gardener but love tomatoes and love the results.

Re: Vegetables to plant in small space
Can you fit a couple of large pots in your space? If you like zucchini,
I'd try that. They are prolific and one or two plants would do you for quite a while! It's a little late maybe to start from seed, but if you can get starts I'd do that. Or bush beans. Or peppers. Anything like that. No corn, of course, in a small space. But a lot of the other usual suspects will do just fine! Good luck, happy growing! ![]() |

Re: Vegetables to plant in small space
You can plant one tomatoe plant in a pot - and you can plant vine green bean, cucumber or squash or you can do herbs. You can plant peppers in a pot. Go for it!!

Re: Vegetables to plant in small space
also very nice, some herbs you can go out and cut for whatever meal you are preparing. they don't need large pots, try rosemary, basil, chives, tarragon, sage, they should do very well, but not in full hot sun. the more you clip them, the more they grow.

Re: Vegetables to plant in small space
And don't forget chilis. You can grow many varieties in quite a small space if you avoid the larger types. They love hot sun but water them well!
