Well, I "lucked into" half a dozen 22" no-hole plastic pots for $5 each (end of season clearance at Lowe's), so I'll have room next year! I've got several similar containers within garden beds and a couple tucked into a new gravel "patio" area, and I really like them! I do add mosquito control bits (maybe a couple of fish next year...) to the pots. They're easier than other containers out there for me, because they don't need daily watering, just topping up every so often with the hose.
Check out the culture info at TWL... I learned a lot from their site! They've supplied co-ops for several years now I think. I found their co-op at MamaJack's last year, and I'm hoping they'll do another.
