Large Tomatoe Plants Need Repotting

This spring I underestimated the size of the pots I would need for the heirloom varieties of tomatoes we are growing in the greenhouse. That said I really needed to get these big plants into big enough pots for them to thrive for the rest of the growing season. Here is how it went:

It is hard to tell how big this plant is this is only a two gallon pot

 

 

This pot is three times bigger!

 

Our greenhouse at SMU has tables that can be taken apart to give plants more head room

These large tomato plants now have enough growing room and enough soil to produce well into the fall growing season possibly yielding tomatoes through November.

The basil is now located nearer the door and is easier to harvest.

Come by the greenhouse and snip some basil it just keeps it healthy and bushy!

 

Our Stocky Red Roaster Pepper Plants are HUGE! They are blossoming now and I hope to see peppers forming soon. I have seen bees inside the greenhouse but some hand pollination would help.
