I have a Winter planted RemyRouge on the deck in a one gallon plastic pot pumping out fruit right
now. I did top it, cut off the growing tip, early April to slow it down a bit. Non of my Winter grown
tomatoes were meant to continue outside yet all are thriving in small 1-2 gallon pots/grow bags.

They just need a bit more attention than in-ground plants to keep fed and not drying out.

If one or two seem stressed i wonder if you could not set it down into a larger grow bag and add soil
around it giving those roots somewhere to go since you are off the ground. Though i doubt you need
to do anything like mentioned.
