I'm keeping the containers smaller than a rubbermaid tub so I can move it about the yard during the day. So far the plants are loving it! Good luck with yours!Angelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05122325888722980672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15257330.post-76132787350098138872009-04-13T09:15:00.000-04:002009-04-13T09:15:00.000-04:00How exciting. I'm hoping to grow a bunch of tomatoes as well this year (I think I have 25 started). Needless to say I'm only growing 1 plant of many of them.Chiot's Runhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05086153621579437021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15257330.post-66120902012155046442009-04-13T08:28:00.000-04:002009-04-13T08:28:00.000-04:00I've grown Mortgage Lifter and Brandywine and from my experience Cherokee Purple is far superior to either as an eating tomato and a more resilient plant in the garden. Also note: you can now get a more resistant variety of Mortgage Lifter at Southern Exposure Seed Exchange, although the fruits are said to be a bit smaller. Otherwise, Mortgage Lifter is highly susceptible to the usual tomato infections.Ed Bruskehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12217850970833353800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15257330.post-12305222462720458282009-04-13T08:17:00.000-04:002009-04-13T08:17:00.000-04:00Hope you post progress on your homemade containers - those store bought ones surely are expensive. I'm experimenting with a few things like that this year too.<BR/>Your tomato list sounds like lots of good stuff.Sandehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08810788367419537003noreply@blogger.com
