KN> Our patio tomato leaves are turning yellow. We only get west sun
KN> as that is way our apartment faces. Why? Also we had one green
KN> tomato that turned rotten on bottom of it and fell off. What
KN> could cause this problem? We have all kinds of green tomatoes on
KN> both plants.  This is our first year raising patio tomatoes.
Your leaves could be turning yellow from a lack of nutrients.
Try some miracle gro on them if you haven't been feeding them
regularly, if that's the problem they'll green up fast.  How many
hours of sun do they get a day? That's one of the most important
items. Tomatoes need a lot of hours of sun. If they have only a
few hours a day it'll take a lot longer to ripen any tomatoes.
KN> What other veggie's do people raise on patio's? Next year we want
KN> to raise more vegetable's.
You can grow quite a few different veggies in containers
depending on your tastes. I've grown bush cucumbers, peppers,
carrots, beets, lettuce, spinach and some others in containers
with good luck.
