The first time I grew tomatoes in a container, the holes weren't big enough and they became clogged. I didn't notice it at first and after a big rain, checked them a couple of hours later and those babies were drowning. I'm sure there is a happy medium about how fast you want it to drain, but I don't think you would want your tomatoes sitting in a bucket of water for hours on end. My $0.02
