GardenSMART wanted to compare different growing media thus implemented a trial at the Tiny House. In one
raised bed we used a successful brand from a big box store, in the other Hank’s product. Although we planted
the tomatoes and peppers late in the season they thrived in Hank’s mushroom compost while they struggled in
the other. That trend continued until late fall. The difference is simply amazing.
A ten-gallon pot on a sunny patio can outproduce a full garden bed - if you pick the right tomato variety. Park Seed has narrowed the field to 13 varieties proven to work well in containers. Click here for a listing of four varieties that solve specific container issues.
