Hi everyone! A very good late evening to all. I never tried planting anything ever. But I had a thought of planting tomatoes now. But of course it's midnight now and have to wait for morning for proper sunlight, blah blah blah I looked up a few videos in YouTube and it sure seemed helpful. I sit around doing nothing all day due to the lockdown so I think it's worth trying out. Have you ever planted tomatoes in a soil pot or in any other way? Have any tips? What all other vegetables to you grow/plant? (Image: definitely not mine!)

We just put the seed outside in our garden and the plants cane up. Not much work in growing tomatoes.

Oh,I see. We don't have a garden of ours here because we like in an apartment. So pot is the best option for me

I think that's a good idea. I never planted tomatoes in a pot, but I did in the garden.

I have a big enough plot to grow tomatoes so don't want to any extra trouble of growing tomatoes on the terrace.

Yes, I have planted tomatoes in my garden before. Just put the seeds in a pot and cover it with soil. That is if you have no garden.

My daughter and I were just talking about doing that. Planting cherry tomatoes would be easy on our deck but like you I know nothing about growing tomatoes.

I might do that, because to my dismay went I planted tomatoes last year something ate them!

I do it annually. My crop is almost over. I live in Hyderabad, and in this season, insects are hard to come by. Therefore, even if I plant tomatoes, and they grow to get those flowers, pollination is not likely. You won't get a good crop in this season. You could opt for alternates like curry leaves, or maruam ...they grow and in due course will give regular leaves.
