I did a raised bed this year. Same place I planted 2 years ago, but rain runoff down my driveway flows right to the same spot and it flooded out my plants. I planted in a different spot last year but it's harder to water over there.
So this year I built a raised bed out of some old 1x12 shelves we tore out during our basement remodel. It's not really that big, 4'x8' but enough room for a couple of 'mater plants plus another cherry tomato and then a jalapeno and a habanero plant. I got everything in late around the middle of May so really haven't had much produce yet. The tomatoes and the habanero look real healthy but the jalapeno looks sickly and only getting tiny peppers off of it
