What are the best maters to plant in a 5 gallon bucket? I think all the ones
I have get too big- (Marglobe, Brandywine, Early Cascade, Black Krim, Giant
Belgium) Can any go in a 10 gallon pot? What about cherry maters?
Thanks


I may be a bit premature on this, but... I have four
tomato plants in 20-litre/5-gal buckets right now.
They are "Moneymaker" variety, and seem to be thriving
in general. Summer here started on December 1st. And,
despite the off-and-on weather, I have a nice amount of
green fruits at this point.

Last season, I did "Beefsteak" variety, and the low
yields could reasonably be put down to storms last Feb.

My general understanding is that 20-litre/5-gal will
accommodate just about any variety. The real variables
then are sunlight/heat and very diligent watering.
