Vertical gardening strategies
When floor space is limited, go vertical. Use tiered plant stands, hanging planters, and wall-mounted pockets. The AI planner suggests vertical layouts when you enter small dimensions.
Container sizing guide
Match container size to plant needs: herbs and greens do fine in 6-8 inch pots; tomatoes need 5+ gallons. Rail planters maximize balcony edges without taking floor space.
High-yield plants for small spaces
Focus on cut-and-come-again greens, compact cherry tomatoes (like Tiny Tim), and prolific herbs. These give you the most harvest per square foot.
Space-saving tips
Use saucers that nest under pots, choose compact varieties, and succession plant—as one crop finishes, start another in the same pot.
