Quick question hopefully.
I am planting only dwarf tomatoes and wonder if one is to plant the seedling/transplant deeper than current soil level like one does for det/indeterm varieties or not. I am planting into self-watering pots/containers. Thanks |

Plant them the way you'd plant other tomatoes.

I Just plant them normally, especially if determinate dwarf varieties
Not “ deep” as you may see so often promoted. KarenO |

I agree with you.
I'm glad they are coming out with self-watering pots for young people, working-class, and Professional to have fresh grown fruit and vegetables. But I am glad to get up and out to water my plants until I grow old. ![]()

I usually plant dwarves deep, just as I do with other types.
