Tomatoes and Project Springtime
- All varieties grow very rapidly and produce lots of fruit
Issues
- Even with aggressive trimming, the plants are really too large for the Vertical Recirculating Deep Water Culture System (5x5ft) or the Vertical Recirculating Deep Water Culture System (10x5ft). Roots may clog the pipes even before the first fruit are ripe.
