Started following your blog last year, but did not use your container soil mix until this year. WoW! What a difference1 Amazing Growth! I have 7 containers and 2 Earthboxes overflowing with tomatoes this year, your commentary and helpful tips are just terrific. Thanks for helping me bring in the tomatoes! Hopefully I can figure out how to post my tomato plant pictures.MissElainEoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17181094914352827026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1904077667313642692.post-85168956641448779132012-01-23T05:46:59.514-08:002012-01-23T05:46:59.514-08:00Hey, Will ...

Then again, if you're not getting any fruit any way, what's to lost? Tomatoes are hardly ornamental plants. My only advice: if you're going to do it, get as much soil as humanly possible with the roots. Tomatoes have extremely deep roots (they can extend 4-feet down quickly), so reduce the shock by getting as much as possible.Jon VanZilehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14026643422328853037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1904077667313642692.post-68945083760915839322012-01-23T05:37:56.314-08:002012-01-23T05:37:56.314-08:00Hi Jon - walking thru a Home Depot 60 days ago, I ...Hi Jon - walking thru a Home Depot 60 days ago, I couldn't help myself and purchased another pre-grown plant (German Johnson heirloom). Foolishly, I put it in a fairly shaded area (2 hours direct sun per day max). It has really grown bushy and 4ft tall but very few buds and certainly no toms. I have another spot in the yard picked out with lots more sun where I should have put it to begin with. Can I transplant this w/o harming it? If so, any tips to do so? Thanks!
