I have three Aerogarden heirloom cherry tomato pods started. I want to make sure I have tomatoes this winter!
I will move two plants when they get bigger.

No more pristine deck!
I plan to leave one plant in the Harvest and put the other two in the grow tent once I get it set up.

Now that I have an available Bounty (from the eggplant), I will be moving two of the little tomato plants into it, and leave the one on the left in the Harvest.
I am waiting until I get the room for the grow tent organized from top to bottom to set it up. I'm not quite there yet.

This is the tomato that is still in the Harvest.
Seeing new tomatoes form never gets old!

Here's an update. It is putting on new growth at the top.

My eyes keep gravitating to those bunches at the bottom, though!

At one point, the canopy was so dense and there were no tomatoes on one side. So I severely pruned (butchered) the plant to direct all its energy into ripening that one big cluster. Instead, it put out new productive growth and is producing tomatoes on the other side, too.
The white, crusty deck is evidence of adding cal-mag.

This looks great! Fresh cherry tomatoes in January are going to be just delicious. Maybe you can make this burst cherry tomato risotto sauce (Step 9) www.bonappetit.com/recipe/bas-best-risotto I made the risotto last night and was wishing for some nice cherry toms.

This is the first time I have grown AG's heirloom tomatoes. Some of the tomatoes are larger than I expected. I am pleasantly surprised.
