Can I grow roma tomatoes year around?
Q. If I dug up my roma tomato plant now and placed it in a large planter pot indoors by a lot of windows, will it continue to make delicious tomatoes? does the plant naturallly die within one year?
Asked by missy - Mon Oct 16 14:17:22 2006 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Many people have success with this, but as the days get darker earlier, it will respond to the lack of natural light, even though it is warm indoors, so supplement the light a few extra hours daily with a grow light found at your local Walmart. Side dress with fertilizer or water with compost tea, or just water weekly with a fertilizer-water mix, and good luck. You can get a lot of good info from your local master gardeners society (check for their website), or call your local home extension office. The site I use is www.tulsamastergardeners. org and there is a search on their page for questions.
