Has anyone had success growing tomatoes in a big pot? If so, were there any special things you did?


Question:

Answers:
Make sure you start with clean pots with plenty of drainage.Use 1/2 good quality potting mix and Grow Mulch.Add a small amount of Epsom salt to that. Plant the tomatoes, one plant to a pot and water thoroughly and frequently.Don't smoke around them if you smoke,or let anyone else that smokes around them. That causes tobacco virus. Use Miracle grow once a month and you'll have to use cages for them.Keep in full sun.We grow Tomatoes like this every year.


No intergalactic science here stake the plant when tall enough prune to give good growth and lots of sun, did i mention lots of sun(use peat moss in the soil and clay pot is best it's porous)
I used a big plastic pot with drain holes. I put rocks in the bottom of the pot and then top soil mixed with one bag of potting soil and some tree litter, i.,e., crumpled up tree leaves. I used cherry tomatoe plants and placed it in a sunny location.
I had lots of cherry tomatoes.
