Used to just toss my tomato seedlings in any old pot

I used to cram 4 plants into a 12 inch pot thinking they’d figure it out, but after a windy day knocked the whole mess over onto my neighbor’s BBQ grill, I switched to one plant per 5 gallon bucket. Now I get way bigger tomatoes and don’t have to apologize for ruining burgers. Anyone else have a disaster that made you change your setup?

Had a rabbit eat my whole herb garden in one night. Still not over it.

Right? Those little furballs have no respect for hard work. I once had a whole row of chard vanish overnight, all I found was one tiny tooth mark on a stem. Nature's way of teaching us who's really in charge, I guess.
