Ensure your tomato plants stay strong this summer with one specialist's tip.
With the sun finally starting to shine, many gardeners have already begun sewing seeds to sprout in the warmer seasons.
"Here's how to fix a very common tomato growing mistake," the enthusiast began. "If your tomato seedlings don't have quite enough light, they become leggy, which means they're stretching really tall to try and get closer to the light." She explained: "All you have to do is put a little bit of pea free compost into a pot and then bury the tomato plant down as deep as possible. You can bury the plant all the way down to the first set of leaves.
One Person said: "Thank you. most of my seedlings have grown like this." While a second penned: "I am v new to this, my indoor tomatoes are now about 3-4ft tall. Is it true more roots more fruits? Idk how deep to plant them outdoors." Unfortunately new furniture is a big expense, but Wowcher is offering huge savings on a rattan set. The eight-seater set comes with two sofas, two stools, an end table, all centred around the star of the set - a glass-topped fire pit table.
