Talkback: Planting out tomatoes

Grafted Tomato Plants!
not produce so well, they were in a smaller pot so perhaps that was my fault, the fruit were not large, neither was the plant compared to ones I have seen growing in South Africa. I might try a grafted tomato in the greenhouse this year, the last 2 years have by JIMMMY

Tomato Growpots, any good?
waiting to hear about these, I have never tried them I just wonder why good they can be if they are clearing them out? Have thought about getting these but still wondering. It looks like the tomatoes would have a bigger root ball which hopefully would stop by LeadFarmer

Curly leaves on tomato plants...
I have raised my own tomatoes from seed, growing Gardner's Delight as I have previously had lots of success with them.  They have been planted and raised indoors and then 3 weeks ago potted into large terracotta pots in the greenhouse, in their peat by Garden Maniac
