How big do the plants get? Can I grow it in a 5 gallon container?
My seeds came from Cole Robbie too and plants did not get huge. For the ones growing in Root Pouches, they are 5 gallon b/c that's what Mark does.

Here's a couple of plants growing on my pool deck. My biggest producer though should be the runt of the litter (due to Russet Mites) which was stuck in an EarthBox with minimal potting mix replacement. It's partner was the runt of the litter too.

I made the mistake of pairing one in an EB with SkyReacher and facing N-S vs E-W. SkyReacher is a much bigger plant and hogging the sun. Another EB has really big Matsu Express tomatoes.
