I am trying a couple of tomatoes in big pots again this year (about my 3rd try) and so far am not impressed. I may get a tomato before it snows. I live at 8300 feet in Colorado and move the pots in at night if I doubt the overnight lows. A neighbor has a lovely greenhouse (looks like a kit) and I'm wondering if I should install one of those instead of using containers. Does anyone know if a greenhouse would help veggies grow better, considering my elevation? I can't think of any other reason why things won't grow in pots here. We are hot and sunny all day long.
