Using Smart Pots Soft-Sided 100 gallon Container

mick5500 · May 3, 2014

Hello Everyone,
I live in Victorville, CA. Bad winds and lousy dirt. I have a large yard with some limited wind protection in one area were I am growing everything in containers.
I have a large industrial cart that I can put more then the 100 gallon smart pot on and move around to keep in sun and protect from the wind.
Most plants are still only less then a foot high since I have transplanted twice and have a very thick root . I would like to plant some companion plants, garlic , basil or something or should I just go tomato only.

My question is can I transplant my indeterminate tomato and or other plants of 7 to 10 gallon containers into the 100 gallon smart pot ?
How should I treat the amount of plants into this type of container ?
Would 7 plants allowing for 15 gallons per plant ?
Any advice would on using the Smart pot soft sided container would be appreciated.

Thank you
