Cherry Falls Tumbler Tomatoes

[shivvy]

I am growing tumbler tomatoes for the first time. They are at the height now that I would usually support regular tomatoes with a cane.
But do I need to do anything with tumbler tomato plants? Or do they gradually tilt and bend over as the flowers appear?
Thanks.

As this is a trailing variety, ideally suited to be grown in hanging baskets, I'd be inclined to just let them romp away.
As the plants develop, they should start to grow prostrate under their own weight.
Allowing them to tumble over the sides of large pots is another good option.

I have grown these in hanging baskets and just let them go their own way, they produced amazing numbers of tomatoes, (not big ones obviously) but very rewarding to grow !

Thanks Chip and julia. I will let them flop and do their own thing!

I made the mistake of nipping out some of the side shoots (out of habit) but have since read that it is better to leave them on trailing plants so I will leave well alone now and see how they get on.

We have a couple of hanging basket with tumblers in, in the greenhouse, not tumbling just yet but have a fair few flowers.

Most of the plants have flopped over nicely now!

However I'm a bit worried that the stem might be under a bit of pressure against the rim of the pot when they start to get heavy when the tomatoes appear.
I will maybe add a bit of padding on the lip of the pot as it is quite a thin edge.
