Most of the beans are climbers, and you can grow them on your balcony or rooftop garden near a wall. Make sure you select a spot that gets ample sunlight.
Grow them in 10-12 inches-deep pots and a trellis-like structure for support. Since beans fix the nitrogen, you can grow summer savory kale, spinach, and celery with it in a large pot.
Without a doubt, tomatoes are the easiest to grow if you can expose them to plenty of sunlight. You could also try cherry tomatoes for a higher yield.
Growing lettuce in pots is easy as it grows up quickly, and you will have the opportunity to harvest repeatedly.
For growing lettuce, choose a wide planter rather than a deep one. Remember, leaf lettuces can be grown more closely than head lettuces. Use well-draining soil and do shallow and frequent watering to keep the soil slightly moist always.
Cucumbers are one of the easy container vegetables though they require regular watering, full sun, warm temperature, and fertilizer. If you have some space, instead of growing dwarf and bushier varieties grow tall, climbing varieties for higher yield.
After tomatoes, peppers and chilies are the easiest to grow in containers, and they are the most productive too. If you keep the pot in a sunny spot and provide the right soil and fertilizer at the time, this vegetable will fruit prolifically.
Sow the seeds of carrot varieties that are short instead of standard ones, as they require more room to grow their roots. Keep the plants in full to partial sun. Also, carrots are susceptible to mildew, so don’t wet the foliage.
Radishes are one of the quickest-growing vegetables and

When my wifeand I finally got around to re-landscaping our 1922 Spanish-style bungalow in Los Angeles, we did what many space-challenged Angelenos do: reimagined the unused back half of our driveway. It’s a classic SoCal bungalow move. Why park in your driveway when you can play in it? Over the years, it has served our family well, as a toy and tricycle repository when the kids were little, an outdoor weight room when the kids were bigger, and a spot for random acts of improvisational wood-fired cooking. Occasionally, we would even park a car in it.
