We're using Earth Boxes again this year, these have four species of tomatoes in them. They were in the backyard in full sun last year, now they're on the patio. This is so we can shield from the blast furnance San Fernando Valley sun of August and September. They stopped producing during that period last year. Also, having them on the patio may help protect them from become ant sanctuaries, like one did last year.
Although the instructions say two tomatoes per Earth Box, when I emptied them out last year, it was all root, with practically no soil left. Hmmm.
