Tomato Guy - Part IV - Tomato Plants

More from Tomato Guy.

After the last frost next spring, it will be time to populate the tubs.

The Tomato Guy buys his stock from nine different retailers hoping to find a variety of different growers.  He reasons that if one plant is diseased his whole crop is not ruined and the summer's growing season is not lost.

It will be interesting to see when I check back with him in the spring the answers to the following questions about the planting and care of his tomato transplants:
  • how deep; vertical or horizontal 
  • how close to the last-frost date
  • how to protect tender plants
