Good afternoon, @playfulfoodie! We hope you don´t mind that we dare to give you a little recommendation regarding your planting situation. It would be much better if you used pots instead of a regular plastic container. Pots have three essential advantages:
- They have a dark coloring which impedes light irradiation.
- They have holes at their bottom side which enable water excess to drain off, thus the plants can´t be immersed.
- They are made of a special material that is not affected by light and other external influencers. We have some pots that we are using since 15 years so they are extremely durable.
Then your tomatoes will be able to fully enjoy their growing process - and you as well (-:

Ooh, no I don't mind getting your advice at all! Thank you very much :D
I will definitely think of getting some of these pots the next time I'm at a garden shop.
To be honest, I wasn't at all thinking they would grow as much as they did! They were from some free seeds we got while grocery shopping and most of those die before they even grow 1 cm.

You are welcome and we are glad you appreciated the recommendation.
We forgot to mention one more advantage: these pots are very inexpensive. Considering their longevity the price-performance ratio is really excellent.
Best of luck for your further growing experiences!
