Patio Tomatoes
I purchased a patio tomato plant. Can I leave it to grow in the container it came in? How do I take care of it? 
Patio tomatoes: Medium sized red fruit. Short, compact plant, 24 inches tall. Grows well in small areas or in tubs.
The container must be at least 12" deep for tomatoes. Full sun-if possible. In containers you must water and fertilize more often- unlike being in the ground the roots cannot search out for water and nutrients. Provide drainage. Space plants 24" apart. Potting soil and organic matter. Fertilize with 5-10-10 fertilizer. Set transplants deep- full a better root system to develop.
