Care of my indoor patio tomatoes.....?
Will my tomato plants grow faster if I leave the standard 60 watt bulb on in the room at night? Please I'm serious when it comes to my 'maters! So please be serious with your answers.

EWWW. I have never grown Patio tomatoes, But a 60 watter shouldn't provide enough light for them. I would invest in a vegetable lamp which are available at most outdoor centers. They are the same lamps the professional green houses use in order to get the plants to start in a green house.

If you're an urban gardener or have limited space, this tomato collection is for you. 'Patio', with its compact vines, grows happily in 12" to 14" containers, and produces medium-sized fruits great for slicing and salads. Like other tomatoes, it requires 6 to 8 hours of full sun per day.
