Growing Tomatoes In Grow Bags - My Process For Transplanting Into Fabric Pots

In this video I am transplanting 4 week old tomato seedlings into 7 gallon fabric grow bags. I grow most of my vegetables in the ground, most of the time, but sometimes it is more convenient to grow them in these lightweight fabric pots / grow bags that are easy to move around. I typically use 5 gallon grow bags for peppers or cucumbers, 7 gallon grow bags for tomatoes, and 10 gallon grow bags for squash/zucchini or sweet potatoes.

Here are links for many of the products I use in my vegetable garden. Many of these are mentioned in the video:
