What will your marketing strategy be? Knowing who your potential customers are will help you decide what tomatoes to grow.

And it will depend a great deal on the type and size of the GH and the need for heating and cooling. They can be the biggest overhead expenses.

Then in ground planting beds or containers?

Several here grow commercially. Pull up bmoser, jrslick, and timmy1 posts. They all do it. Barry's website is http://moserproduce.com/ and Jay (jrslick) often posts over on the Greenhouse forum here. That forum is a good place to start.

Here is a link that might be useful: Greenhouse Tomato Handbook

I am going to check the link out now.

Honestly I'm just beginning to research. Marketing strategy? Honestly I dont know. I dont know if it'd be better to go the organic route, I'm sure you have to get FDA crap to be able to actually claim it so that might be a pain, I also dont know the difficulty of getting rid of the tomatoes. Is it hard to get local grocery stores to take them in the off months?

I'm just vocalizing my initial "no clue" thoughts. This is just a bubble of a hope of an idea right now. Based on what I've read on

In ground beds or containers...Again, I dont know yet. I have experience growing in coco and I dont know the quality of my soil. I'd prefer in the ground if going with organics, and probably pots if not

I'm just sort of wanting to play with it for a few harvests feeling it out really...If I'd be able to pull it off...if I can find buyers for the product etc

If it looks like I can make it work advance from there.

Again, thanks for the informative posts--checking out that link

a local here that grows tomatoes in his green house stated that the best tomato for him is "Geronimo". He has been doing this for some time. His tomatoes are not as good as mine, but are far better than store bought. They are nice looking tomatoes and some grow to be a good enough size to cover my blt with one slice.

hth,
