44. Definitely garden
Besides, the vegetables you get are much better than what you buy in the store. If you have limited space or only a sunny deck, a couple of Earthboxes will allow you to grow lots of tomatoes and squashes. My one problem with them is the company vastly overestimates how many plants you can put in one. I limit myself to two tomatoes, two squashes, or four peppers per box. Two sunburst squashes will make dozens of yellow patty-pan squashes. (You may have to hand pollinate squashes.) Two early girl tomatoes will make dozens and dozens of tomatoes.

You can use your Earthboxes for years and years. I have some I've been using for probably 10 years, and they're just as good as when I got them.
