Nov 9, 2015 at 20:54 comment added CDspace @shule this is apparently not a frost free region. We've had frost on the ground the past few nights, and the tomatoes are clearly dying
Nov 9, 2015 at 15:08 comment added Escoce @Shule some tomatos can be yes, especially indeterminate varieties. Those are the ones that bare flower and fruit all year long so long as the weather cooperates. Tomatoes are tropical vines in all actuality and can grow extraordinarily long or tall if permitted and cared for properly. I means 100s of feet long is possible if allowed.
Nov 8, 2015 at 4:53 comment added Brōtsyorfuzthrāx Don't forget that even tomatoes can be perennials in frost-free regions.

Nov 7, 2015 at 16:30 comment added Stephie @CDspace In a nutshell, yes. If you have a very long and dry winter, pots may dry out and need a bit of water on frost-free days, but generally speaking, relax during winter and let your plants "sleep", too.
Nov 7, 2015 at 14:25 comment added CDspace It seems I had my terms backwards, thank you. So basically just do nothing, and start watering (lightly) again after the last frost next year?
