Peppers, banana and hot peppers. Please disrequard the wreckage in the background, I am demolishing some old display cabinets for the oak and maple wood in them.

Free range Legend mater. I have the container plus soil to give each free range mater twice the space, but that is still short of what they need. When I first had the idea of a raised free range mater container, I was thinking of 4ft x4ft or 4ft x 6ft wooden boxes made from pallet lumber, about 30" to 36" from the ground.What I want to know mostly is whether I can grow maters without stakes at a confortable working heigth.

The ground level garden maters, various varieties, 2 on rt hand row are potato leafed maters. variety I don't remember. The tag is by them but I can't read them from 6ft away.

Everything except the free range maters have flowers or tiny fruit(peppers ARE fruit, ain't they?)

I don’t have signs of a sweet or hot pepper growing yet. Peas are gradually adding more peas and there are small green blackberries that I hope grow, but all plants have a long way to go. Don’t know how big this deck corn gets before it decides to grow an ear of corn.

The two foot tall cucumber plant with blossoms is the plant I see that will be next to start growing something. I would faint if I saw a blossom on a tomato plant.
