What you can learnClear cautionary example of attempting a larger tomato in a Bounty and using pruning and training to manage excessive growth.

That is a funny shape but looks cool.
Ended this today - it doesn't seem like growing larger tomato plants in a Bounty is feasible, since I never got mine to fruit even when it produced flowers.
Too bad. It was a great try however.
That little tomato looks like it is a gem set in a surrealistic setting. It's an odd and fascinating plant.
Home made styptic powder for plants.
What a genius comparison! Wish I had thought of it!
Those tomato flowers look different. Very pretty! I hope it bushes out and gives you lots of yummy tomatoes.
Can you trellis it over to the right? Maybe use something to hold them there and train them to bend over and grow that way? Just throwing crazy stuff out there
That is a unique looking tomato plant! Pretty, too.
I checked your link and it says it is unable to connect to the server you are using. So I still do not see the picture
It looks like the site is down right now, hopefully it will come back soon.I figured out that my earlier issue was that (for some reason) there was a space at the beginning of the image link.
That site seems to be back up now, let me know if you still can't see it
ERR0R1755, for some reason they are not being displayed here. I will send a report ticket in to see why. In the meantime, can you post the link itself and we can click on it.
I can see them now.
And I can not
Here is the direct link: files.catbox.moe/wg5o7r.jpg
THank you. There are SOME ISP's that do not allow that repository. I have asked my husband to look into it for me. However from catbox's FAQ's this is what they said:Why can't I see anything on files.catbox.moe? Catbox is currently blocked by some ISPs and filtered DNS servers. If you're a subscriber of British Telecom (BT), Vodafone, or some Australian/New Zealand ISPs, and are not using custom DNS servers, you will probably have issues. Additionally, Catbox has been blocked by Quad9 before. The question is, why are you still using ISP/filtered DNS servers? Consider using OpenDNS, Quad8 (Google DNS), or Level3. Hopefully my husband will be able to figure something out so I can see them.
Sorry for the late reply! Somehow I messed this message. I'm very thankful for the offer, but at the moment I have been happy with the AG nutrients. Both my Rosy Finch and Orange Hat tomatoes seemed to do well with AG nutes + CALiMAGic.I tried the MasterBlend and a couple other multi-part nutrient formulas, and while I did see a difference, I'm always too lazy to deal with the ordering, weighing, and multiple mixing stages - especially when I can just put a couple ML of AG nutes and call it a day
Same here! I have Masterblend, but it is such a pain to mix when the alternative is simply squirt and use. ,
Yep, I miss the simplicity and quickness of premixed liquid. On the bright side I made an electric mixing lid for a 5 gallon bucket so I exercise while each part is mixing.. that is exercise I would not be doing if I were not in the basement waiting for the mixer to do it's thing!
Added 8ml of nutes!
I see, so basically Bonsai the top and roots .. will be interested to see how a plant that has not been altered to stay small takes to containment. To me it is like herding cats without a vacuum cleaner..
I am very curious as to how many tomatoes you will have on a plant kept so small. If you are interested in the nutrient system I am using, I can hook you up! All 3 products were in 5lb bags, enough for a 1000 gallons of solution, so PM me if you would like a lb of each. The AG and Dyna-bloom were really not what my plant needed.. It was purple as can be until I switched. I have the tomato formula, Calcium Nitrate, Magnesium sulfate and Potassium Nitrate. Product and mixing instructions are Here
What is your plan for this as far as a container? My inside plant (indeterminate) is in a bus tub that holds about 3 gallons of water with a decent air space and it is really hard to keep it fed and ph level correct and I am trying to prune it to keep it within the space I have. The one in the double bucket (outside) is much more stable so far with 7 gallons of water. That is being pruned from bottom up as it grows as are the inground plants.With the tub inside, I am feeding 2 days after a change.. which is weekly and it drinks about 2 qts of water every 12 hours. The hard part about feeding is I am using a multiple part dry system so have to mix a couple gallons of nute to water with..Good luck with it!
