All good points - thanks for satisfying my curiosity (some might say "nosiness"... ). Although as a general rule I feel that tomatoes in particular grow better in the ground, I totally agree with the idea of having "more control of soil conditions." I have 5 blueberry plants in large pots because I had difficulty correcting the pH of the soil for them; and I am also able to move them inside my hoophouse for the winter, although that probably wouldn't really be necessary.

And I can certainly relate to the "less bending" is better sentiment - thank goodness for my garden seat/kneeler, not sure I would be able to garden without that thing!

And, Binford - of COURSE you NEED a garden - and a greenhouse - and benches... we'll have no more of that crazy talk about not needing that stuff!
