So, I have had success with tomato plants in cages with supports and the weirdest thing is that even though I planted squash and zucchini in some long and low planters, they never produced.
lettuce is a good one, radishes, basil, garlic, beans, cucumber, leaks. There are several more depending on what you like.
happy growing
I plant "small roots" veggies. At the moment I have 5 kinds of lettuce/radishes/spinach

Try purchasing Tomatoes that will not get to large(grape tomatoes)Basil should be fine,basically vegetables with a small root system.
