Question 1

Do these grow well in a hanging planter?

Accepted Answer

I have some growing in a 5 gallon wicking bucket and 2 growing in one gallon pots with water trays underneath covered with a plastic bag to keep the mosquitoes out. The stems and fruit are larger in the 5 gallon bucket, so they will grow in a hanging planter, but an upside down one would be better. The stem in the gallon pot are flexible, but the thicker stems in the 5 gallon pot look strained. I have them hanging on strings.

Question 2

Would these be a good choice for planting in aerogarden?

Accepted Answer

They get large. 15 ft tall outside its a bush variety but don't let that fool you. Started indoors and had to transplant outdoors. Huge yields. Got a bumper crop last year. I did no pruning at all though. Got over 4ft indoors. So to answer your question depends on how well you keep it pruned unless it's a huge aerogarden setup. Good luck to you.

Question 3

How many seeds should I plant in one pot indoors?

Accepted Answer

These large cherry tomato plants grow well in the summer outside and grew to over 6 ft tall.  They are an indeterminate tomato which means they just keep growing. They need to be staked, stringed up for support or grown in a double tomato cage.  I did get hundreds of cherry tomatoes on three plants that I grew in 3 different 5 gallon buckets in the summer.  I suppose you can grow them in a greenhouse indoors all year round depending on where you live.  They are larger cherry tomatoes and tasted more like a regular tomato than a sweet cherry tomato and are about an inch in diameter.  I start my seeds in the peat pellets with a dome over them and put three seeds in those pods.  Or you can plant three seeds in a small pot and then pick out the best ones. I would plant more seeds because you never now how many will germinate.  I use seed starter mix to start my tomato seeds with a grow lamp indoors and then transplant them into a bigger container or pot when they grow to about 4 or 5 inches tall and have their true sets of leaves.  Tomatoes need a lot of sunlight also.  If you want to grow tomatoes in the house I'd try a smaller type plant that is a determinate brand  which means they grow to a smaller determined size.  That would be a type of patio tomato or one of the miniature tomatoes like Tiny Tim.  You would also need a grow lamp to grow them inside  and probably a heat mat to germinate the seeds or a window that has at least 6 hours of full sunlight or 8 hrs is better.  Tomatoes like a hot environment also and are self-pollinating like peppers.  Hope this helps and good luck!
