               Question for you mater heads:  How much circumference do you usually add at peak growth?  Outdoor and indoor please.  I'm only getting 1/4" daily on my indoor set up.

               1/4" for indoor tomato is prety normal. Temperatures and how strong your light is plays a big roll on how fast they grow indoors. Temperatures 70° and below they will grow rather slow temps 75° and above they will grow much faster. Outdoors with temps of 80-85° 1"-1.25" the first 10 days then drops to 3/4"-1" from day 10-20 after that 1/2-1/4" from day 20-30
