If you have enough light and room indoors, it can be fun and rewarding to start your own tomatoes. Starting your own also gives you the opportunity to grow varieties that may not be available as plants. On the other hand, we offer a wide variety of great looking tomato plants at affordable prices that you can take right home and tuck in the garden. Tomatoes are well suited to container gardening. If you don't have room for a large plant that will need staking or cages, choose a bush variety.
Containers can vary from buckets, to barrels to bathtubs.
A determinate tomato plant will grow to a certain size and stop, bearing most of its fruit in a short period of 2-4 weeks. Determinate tomatoes are great for canning or smaller spaces. A few determinate tomatoes are large enough to need support, but most of them can grow without stakes or cages. Indeterminate tomatoes just keep on growing and bearing fruit. They will need support and continually bloom and fruit.
