Rob -

We have a few gardening questions:

1) If we have only a small plot of dirt - about 2 feet by 2 feet - what could we grow? I'd imagine maybe tomatoes.

2) Do you suggest getting a plant already grown and planting it, or starting from seeds - is it too late to start seeds in cups like you have? HOw does one go about this?

3) What are good plants to try growing in pots. We did a tomato plant last year that worked. We'd love to branch out (no pun intended) - but we only have so much land - so we'd be willing to try pots too.
