Smallest container for tumbling toms?

[kentishgal]

Im growing 2 varieties of tumbling tomatoes this year but dont have alot of space for pots. Would it be possible to grow one in one of those half circle wall planters if you used moisture retention granules and didnt mind watering twice a day??
(I was planning on wiring some up to my fence posts and interspersing ones with annual flowers, herbs and tomatoes!).

Yes it's possible.......you will need to feed and water lots.......not always twice a day......but hopefully we get a lovely sunny summer to ripen your toms.......

Like this:



That's a hanging basket left and wall basket right. I line mine with compost bags (black side out so they look nice) cut so they also have a flap to pull over the top of the compost, that helps stop evaporation, and I add water retaining gel crystals. Then I half bury a plastic bottle with the bottom cut off to water through (you can see it in the wall basket). With that I only water once a day and they are covered in fruit.

Thats exactly what I meant! Nice to see that you get a decent crop too!!
