Container gardening allows for thriving gardens in small spaces with proper tools and diligent watering.
Lots of pressure at this time of year, isn't there? All those pink cheeks and sweaty brows puffing their way around the park in dusted-down trainers; all those Botivo mocktails (delicious, for what it's worth) as we strive to self-improve during one of the most grisly months of the year. I've never really been one for resolutions, nor time-measured sobriety (amazing how having small children deflates one's desire to drink enough to conjure a hangover).
Tomatoes have a reputation for being a temperamental garden crop. They're thirsty, both fragile and heavy, and can be prone to disease. Cherry tomatoes, on the other hand, are widely considered among the easiest tomato variety to grow because of how efficiently (and abundantly) they go from flower to fruit. They ripen within about two months of planting and replenish themselves constantly.
