4. Depends on what you want to grow

I only do tomatoes, peppers, and herbs in pots on the deck these days because of the crazy deer population here. But, at my old apartment we trained cantaloupe vines to grow up an existing, tall board fence and used pantyhose hammocks to support the melons. That took very little ground space and was fun to do! We also grew potatoes in a deep, homemade planter box. If you are willing to get creative and don’t mind if things don’t look Martha Stewart pretty, you can grow lots of stuff when you are limited for ground space.
