[quote=Anonymous]I am planting a lot of vegetables in containers this year on my deck which gets full sun. I am truly ignorant on how to go about doing this, although I grew a few plants last year with some success. I have the following: - 2 tomato plants - 2 hot pepper plants - 1 cucumber - 1 eggplant - 1 okra - mint - lemon basil - cilantro Should I plant the herbs together? Or in separate pots? As of right now, I only have 3 14" pots. I think that will be fine for the herbs but I am going to get larger ones for the veggies. I was thinking 24 inch pots for those - is that good? Also, I will buy cages for the tomatoes and a trellis stake for the cucumber but do any of the rest need a cage/stake? I don't think so but not sure. From what I've read, I plan on putting gravel/rocks one fourth of the way in the bottom of the pots, good potting soil and then the plant and layer a bit more soil on top. Does that sound right? Thanks for any and all help. [/quote]
