Hello Mark its fine to plant tomatoes in polytunnels now, some of mine went in 2 weeks ago and came through the recent cold nights. They are more hardy than aubergines, basil, peppers which I am planting from now.
Good idea to bury stems if leggy, up to 2 or 3 inches (7cm) but don’t go too deep or the roots are into less lively soil.
