BIG tomato transplants

alandavis · March 10, 2013

I started some really early tomatoes (hybrids, hierlooms, determinants, in-determinants). My plan was to get them in the high tunnel early in March but because of some cold nights lately I have delayed planting. I have bumped them up to gallon nursery pots and some (cherry in-determinants) are blooming in the greenhouse. Most all of them are at least 18" to 20" tall.

My question: Can a tomato transplant get so BIG that it could hurt production? Considering they are not root bound.
Thanks,
Alan
