I really enjoyed this! We grew several things on the deck this year, not very successfully. We got two pots with 6 foot cages of plastic bars for two tomato plants. Only got about five tomatoes per plant, which were not that good. Got lots of chili peppers which did extremely well.

It would be nice if you could write about growing a few pumpkins and watermelons on the deck, it would be rewarding if we got even two each!

Might be tricky because they sprawl out everywhere. What you might do is take a storage tub, add a few small holes on bottom for drainage, fill it with bagged soil, and then train the vines to your deck railing.
