Are the plants already growing and looking lively? Then it should be just the same as any other tomato plant.

Almost all the tomatoes I grew last year started this way. Well, I started a couple of plants from seeds. But then the indeterminate pear tomato started growing too big. So I cut out pieces, gave them some time in water to start roots, and then planted them with a little rock phosphate. The cuttings continued to grow into little, tall bushes. Pretty soon I had most of a 4x8 box growing with them. At my daughter's insistence I nursed one of the plants through our mild winter. Now I'm starting out gardening this year using cuttings from last year!

I have started many a tomato plant while cutting out suckers, and just sticking the cut end into the soil. In no time they will sprout roots and take off to a full grown tomato.

Missed-em, I'm guessing that most of the members have planted tomato cuttings or suckers. Very Happy
