Has anyone any experience of using Growpots with outdoor tomatoes and cucumbers?

Not sure there is much point in that because the benefit of growpots is that it gives a deeper root run for the toms, which are usually planted on growbags. The toms will have all the root depth they want in the soil.

I will be growing them in growbags but outside rather than in a greenhouse or polytunnel.

They should work just as well then, you shouldn't need to water as often as inside a greenhouse, as obviously outside temperatures won't be as warm ;)
