I potted up my toms into 10 litre pots today, are these big enough ? If not what size should I use

Sounds about right to me. -
10 litres is fine - I have got away with smaller ones than that in the past, but I'm planning on using 11 litre square pots for the outdoor ones that are going in pots.A life is like a garden. Perfect moments can be had, but not preserved, except in memory. LLAP. - Leonard NimoyComment

I have used 8 and 10 litre pots before and they were fine for a plant of around 4-5 trusses, albeit requiring a lot of watering and feeding regularly. So you shouldn't have any problems. Any smaller and you are into twice daily watering and organising your life around your toms.
Last year I made the transition to 15 litre pots for the greenhouse as I was growing slightly bigger plants. 15 litres was ideal for a tom and a basil plant, and I sat them in a tray which I could fill with water for the occasional night away.Comment
