Hi Nick
What size container would you recommend for growing tomatoes in a greenhouse. The Greenhouse has a concrete floor.
Kind Regards
Nick
Hi Peter,
I like to use bucket size containers and find that the 9inch tomato pots a bit too small.
You could sink 9inch pots into a grow bag for extra root space.

Hi Nick, last year I grew a variety of beefsteak called Hillbilly which I bought from Premier Seeds, they gave huge fruits which won the heaviest tomato at our local show. Unfortunately the fruits were very dry and pithy and could only be used with my plum tomatoes to make my tomato sauce. By the way brilliant site keep up the good work. Regards Bob.

Hi Bob,
I’m growing Hill Billy Potato Leaf this season so I’ll let you know how they do.
I’m pleased you like the website.

Nick
