    They live inside all summer. Because of the height restriction I only get about 2-3 trusses of fruit before I have to nip out the tops, so I let some sideshoots grow from the bottom and cut off the original stem when it has finished fruiting. Then it is just a case of repeat until the plant dies or becomes too weak to fruit. They are in 3l pots so they don't last for ever, even if you feed them (I often forget).

    The variety is Shirley.

        I read that as thirty one pots, and thought, no wonder you sometimes forget to feed them!

        Endless wonder.

          What happened when they went into pots please VC? I have wondered about this ever since watching Brad Pitt survive in The Martian

          Anything is possible with the right attitude, a hammer
          and a roll of duct tape.

          Weeds have mastered the art of survival, if they are not in your way, let them feed bees
