Where are your toms now?
«

Mine are in 3" pots on my kitchen windowsill and growing like mad in this hot weather. With the forecast showing more of the same, if a bit cooler, I'm wondering whether to risk putting them out in my unheated greenhouse. I reckon if they got a "check" it wouldn't be a bad thing. They are all about 5" tall.
What do you think?

Mine are in 3 inch pots in an unheated greenhouse potted on from modules today. They were started in the greenhouse so have never had any heat and have been fine.

Mine have been in an unheated greenhouse for at least 6 weeks; and my first ones went into 12 inch pots yesterday and are now in the courtyard.
I have to grow in pots in the greenhouse due to it being on concrete, so am waiting to get some WRM in the next week or so and then the biggest are going into their final pots in there.

Window sill, lean to, plastic greenhouse and two in front garden. Will see which ones do better. One lot still in seed tray, but others have been potted up into larger pots. Fingers crossed, don't grow them at the allotment any more, just in pots in front garden in the sun. Easier to move in the pots inside if it suddenly turns cold.

Mine have all been in polytunnel for the last 3 weeks. Planted a few into their final positions yesterday. Large pot with bottom cut out into growbags. I've also stuck 3 into the ground outside under old sweet jars, well they've got 2 chances lol
Going to finalise rest today.

When weeding, the best way to make sure you are removing a weed and not a valuable plant is to pull on it. If it comes out of the ground easily, it is a valuable plant.

Mine were getting very hot in their mini greenhouses, and when I went away at the weekend and couldn't shade/air/water them, I moved them out to the sheltered but shady patch at the bottom of the steps. They seem happy.
Plenty of flowers on them, so I'm optimistic - as usual Tigerella lovely big things, but I'm especially looking forward to the plum lemon this year.

In the Greenhouse too. Ouch it got a bit cold last night 3.7C ...... they won't have liked that much. Although the greenhouse is in a warm spot in the garden fortunately.
