My balcony is south-facing, lots of sun all day.
If climate is an issue, I live in Montreal, Canada. I would like to know which kind of cherry tomato plant would be best suited to growing in pots on my balcony. Thank you for your input! (I don't know the best group to post this question, so I've posted it in a few spots. Sorry if that's annoying...) -- Posted via a free Usenet account from http://www.teranews.com |

If you are anglophone, Google early ripening cherry tomatoes. Gut Glück, - Bill Coloribus gustibus non disputatum (mostly) |

(I don't know the best group to post this question, so I've posted it in a few spots. Sorry if that's annoying...) Almost anything that your local nursery sells should grow nicely there. The seedlings would be available near the end of May. (Seedlings are the best way for the new grower to start). All you need is a nice sized pot (I use 30L pails) filled with potting soil (not topsoil as it's too compact) and make sure you water daily. New potting soil has enough fertilizer in it to do the plant for the one season but you can consider adding a little tomato fertilizer according to directions provided on the package. With the tomatoes, I use new potting soil every year because tomatoes can pass on disease in the soil from year to year. If frost is forecast for any evening, just take the tomato inside for the night. .. MMVIII |
