Here are some results. It's kind of funny that I have compared growing in the 5 gallon buckets to growing in a party cup. The results look very similar. I had to pull three plants today. Two are Gargamel that did not produce correctly in size of the tomatoes. I don't think that variety is stable yet. The other plant was a Black Krim that has already produced 6 tomatoes and isn't going to produce any more in 100+F heat.

The first picture shows a pulled tomato plant as you would pull them out of the ground (grown in a bucket). The pictures after shows how many roots are left when we pull tomato plants in that way. The picture of the bucket not only shows the bucket, but also NC stands for Nature's Care and the name of the variety. I grew another Gargamel in Pro Mix and saw no difference in plant size or production.

As always, I would like to read your thoughts, comments, ideas, etc.
