I ordered a few of those 7-gallon smart pots so I can transfer my tomato plants and plant peppers and eggplants in them.

Any advice is appreciated.
Good to see another garden hobbyist.

Where are you located. That will determine a great deal of what you can plant.

Also, I prefer SWC's for tomato's. They seem to need a ton of water later on in life. Here is a good method for making one: http://www.globalbuckets.org/
