I have a large basket (18") and I grew 3 tumbling tom plants in that last year. Got a great crop too (didn't get much of it myself though, as the toddler wanted "up" every night to demolish a load with her tea!! Better than looking for chocolate I guess..).
Definitely use the water retaining granules, and leave a bit of a "lip" at the top to allow water to soak in when watering. I tried an empty pop bottle last summer, but that wasn't really much help. In previous years, I just used the granules and nightly watering and everything was grand.
