This is a toddler bed that the neighbor threw out....I put compost stuff in it and covered with black plastic. 2 months later I planted tomatoes in it, and they did great!
This year, we have painted it red, because of the new idea that tomatoes like that color and grow better! So imagine the car as red, and will post pics when they grow this year.

| Now that the garden is taking off, I can say that just about the only diff between the car and the garden is the foliage. The color is a deeper green and it is much denser. Not more toms that I can see..... Cheri |
