The larger the pot the bteetr! Tomatoes (or anything for that matter) drys out so quickly in pots here in the hot weather. I would plant a determinate variety. They are sturdy plants and need only a stake to hold them up and they seem to tolorate the heat bteetr. I DON'T like upside down tomatoe plants (sorry everyone ). Make sure you keep them moist. Afternoon shade would be great! You need to fertilize more often because they are in pots and the nutrients wash out much quicker. I always grow some in pots just for fun. They will never produce huge crops, but having some fresh tomatoes growing on the back porch is always a treat!
