This video describes how I plant determinate type tomatoes in containers. I use 7 gallon fabric grow bags for the determinate tomato in this video. Determinate tomatoes grow to a maximum height of 3-4 feet and do not require as much room for a root system to develop than more typical indeterminate tomato types. This makes determinate tomatoes a great choices for people with limited growing space, are limited to small containers only, have a short warm season or just don't want to have to deal with the pruning and staking that comes along with indeterminate tomatoes.
The tomato in this video is a Bushsteak Hybrid grown from Burpee seed. Some minor staking may be required when the plants reach full maturity and the weight of the fruit pulls at the tomato plant, but often a 3-4 ft bamboo or plastic stake and a few ties is adequate. These can be staked easily within containers.
I am planting these tomatoes 2-3 weeks prior to my last chance of frost date, so these containers give me some mobility to bring them inside the garage overnight if the evenings get too cold.
