How can you choose the best containers for your container vegetable garden? You can either base your container choice on your veggies, or your veggies on your pot choice. If you selected mini varieties, you can go for smaller pots. These baby carrots are the perfect veg to grow on a small balcony or windowsill. Herbs are also great for small pots. Most other veggies can be grown in medium pots, with a minimum of size of 10l (around 3 gallons). For root veg, make sure your pots are deep enough to accommodate a robust root system. Fruit trees and other perennials are best grown in larger containers. When in doubt, refer to the recommendations on the back of your seed packets.
