Container gardening is a good way for a beginning gardener to get some idea of what growing veggies or flowers. I have gardened for 50 yrs and container gardening has its' own set of problems. I always use large containers with lots of compost mixed with commercial growing medium. I found out compost is too heavy by itself to use in containers- it must be lightened up with sand, gravel, or the ingredients in bagged potting soil. If you are growing veggies with a large root system, you need a deep pot to give the roots room to grow, or about mid-summer when it gets hot, the roots will out-grow the pot and need more water than you can provide. It is a good idea to let the containers get some shade during the hottest part of the day to keep the soil from drying. If you can garden on a sunny porch that gets some shade would be ideal. Remember to feed the soil often with a diluted solution of whatever fertilizer you are using. If you buy potting soil that contains fertilizer, this is probably all the plants will need. Check the plants often to see if insects are making holes in your leaves before they get a chance to do more damage than you can repair. You can always add more compost or soil to the top layer of your pot if the soil compacts and will leave you room to grow smaller crops underneath the taller ones, such as lettuce grown under a tall tomato plant. I would subscribe to a gardening magazine, such as Organic Gardening. It will give you many helpful hints on gardening.
