    Thanks I have limited space but I am trying to start my tomatoes in doors this years with a grow lite.
    All my tomatoes will be in large containers but thanks to people like you and youtube I am confident of a good harvest.

    @bullittkid I use six 40-watt cool-white lamps, two per fixture. That’s 240 watts. I can grow about fifteen robust seedlings to approximately 6 inches. I give the seedlings about 14 hours of light per day and they’re ready in four or five weeks.
    At 10 cents per kWh, I’m spending 2.4 cents per hour and 33.6 cents per day. Over 35 days this will cost $11.76. If I grow 15 plants, that’s 78 cents per plant.

    do u spend a lot of money on electricity with the grow lights?

  13. Praxxus55712 on Thu, 1st Jul 2010 9:58 pm 

    Your tomatoes rot if left to touch the ground? What kind of infested poisonous soil do you have??? LOL

    But seriously, tomatoes don’t rot if let to touch the ground. I never have that problem.

    Hi Dave… it does not suprise me that you are a Gardener do you know why?

    Because you’re a weed.

    Nice video Dave. Grow Humongeous Tomatoes after you check out my videos.

    Nice video but to start the seeds inside u don’t need to put them under light u can just set them in a table near a window or something they really don’t need light.

    Wow Just brilliant tips but maybe he should be a bit less philosopheric and a bit more simple? Is that too much to ask or what I dont really mind because I just LOVE tomatoes I dont really care how fat or skinny, dark or light or juicy or dry after all a tomato is a tomato! Or is it?
