Growing Tomatoes In A Pot | Transplanting Tomatoes | Pest Disease & Fungal Prevention for New Plants


This is typically how I transplant a store bought starter tomato plant for indoor container growing.

It is important to take a few precautions to avoid spreading pest infestations, disease, or fungal issues to your established plants. I like to use FoxFarms potting soil as a nutrient base and it typically nourishes the plant for 1-6 months (depending on the plant) before additional supplements are required.

Depending on the state you live in you will have to select the appropriate link, otherwise it may not be available to you. Weird right? Most hydroponic stores and some nurseries will carry these products. Shop local if you can.

3-5 gallon containers work adequately for most plants. I do use a combination of both. I am slightly heavier on the 3 gallon container side due to space restrictions.
