Tiny Tim container size

Itoero · May 19, 2013

I have a couple Tiny Tim tomatoes and was wondering what a good container size would be?
They grow to about 30 cm/1 ft.

I put 2 plants in a 10"/ 3 Gallon pot and they seem to be doing really well, lots of fruit. They seem to know they are together and are growing over the sides. 8" / 1 gallon pots are probably the smallest I would go. I know 16 ounce cups are too small, I have 3 plants still in them and they aren't growing much.

Good luck,

Virtex - That's good to know. I was planning to put two in a five gallon 14.25" by 9.5" SWC and was wondering how they would fit in this container.

Itoero - I think you could grow them indoors under the proper conditions but you may have to clone the plant ever so often to keep yourself in Tiny Toms.
