Creative Vegetable Gardening in Limited Space

Maple trees will sprout (and die, leaving blockage) in rain gutters. Did you ever think that lettuce and similar small, shallow-rooted vegetables would grow in rain gutters? Peggy Layton shares a photo of how a creative gardener attached a few extra rain gutters to the house for instant vegetable-growing space:

More clever ideas below include gardening uses for old cement blocks, plastic bottles, and other things you might have been thinking of as non-Green "clutter" instead of Green garden extenders. And no, it's not too late to use some of these garden ideas to expand your access to cheap organic veggies this summer. Thanks, Peggy Layton and Bob Livingston, for sharing.
