In my experience, potted tomatoes do not do well at all.

...and I second the earlier post about heat/tomatoes; here in the desert we plant sets after Labor Day and harvest in late January - by April they'd be stewing on the vine.

I plant my tomatoes in 30X30” pots. I put them up on cement blocks on a 2X12P/T plank. I use Miracle grow potting soil and feed them with Miracel grow. I usualy get enough to feed the relatives and some neighbors. I don’t have problems with bugs or weeds. Works here in the Orlando area.
